If meeting bugs on Pokemon Go, it won’t be supported by Niantic.

Why does Pokemon Go make this decision?

Pokemon Go gives an official explaination: most of players migrate from older operating systems and devices to the news one and they want to focus resources on new operating systems like iOS 14.

If you are using those devices, remember to prepare in advance in case you can’t enjoy Pokemon Go after updating.
