The current app requires a CPU with ARM v8a support, but your device uses v7l. In a future version, we may restore support for older Android devices. However, this could take some time as we work on completing other planned features.

Thanks, this answers the OP's question which I also had. I'm commenting to check in on whether development is still on hold for older Android devices, or if it's still possible they may be included in a future release. Any updates?
