The ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Sounds app requires iOS 16 or above. It may be possible to update your device. Head to the Apple helpÌýpage for instructions on how to update your device: . (The ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ is not responsible for the content of external sites.)
It is standard practice for updated apps to no longer support older operating systems. This is the case for ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Sounds and ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ iPlayer,Ìýas well asÌýapps by other companies and organisations. Supporting older operating systemsÌýis very costly and does not represent good value for money for licence fee payers, given the relatively small number of users we have still using those older operating systems.
Most devices which can't update the operating system to install the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Sounds appÌýcan still use ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Sounds via the websiteÌýat bbc.co.uk/sounds. More details are available here: Can I use ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Sounds on my mobile or tablet?
