+#### Defender for Endpoint on Android now supports Android 10 as the minimum version
+
+February 2025
+
+**Defender for Endpoint is ending support for Android 8, 8.1, and 9 on April 30, 2025**. Moving forward, only devices running Android 10 and later are supported.
+
+**How does this change affect your organization's users?**
+
+**New Users**: The application will no longer be available for new installations on devices running below Android 10. When users with Android versions below 10 attempt to download the Microsoft Defender app, Google Play store will notify them that the device is incompatible.
+
+**Existing users**: The Microsoft Defender app continues to function for existing users on Android 8, 8.1, and 9 versions, but they don't receive updates from the Google Play store as they don't meet the minimum SDK version requirements. Therefore, any new updates on the app aren't available to users running an Android version prior to version 10.
+
+After discontinuing support for deprecated versions, Microsoft no longer addresses bugs or provides maintenance for unsupported operating system versions. Any issues occurring on devices running Android version prior to version 10 won't be investigated.
+
+This change is planned to go live on April 30, 2025. No explicit admin or end-user action is required.
