Google Chrome will soon require Android 10 or later.

In an update on Monday, Google says Chrome 138 is the last version of the browser that will support Android 8 and Android 9, both of which were released over five years ago. The browser will continue to work on these versions, but it won’t receive additional updates.

Chrome 139 and up will require at least Android 10 when it launches in August.
