Application / OS Deprecation Lifecycle
We've introduced a Deprecation Manager that monitors backend signals and alerts merchants via an in-app dialog when their app or OS version is approaching end-of-life (EOL).
How it works: Deprecation warnings are calculated per package name, with the ability to bypass or deactivate the check on a per-application basis.
Notification schedule:
| Time Until Deprecation | Notification / Action |
|---|---|
| 6 months before | Initial warning notification |
| 3 months before | Reminder notification |
| 1 month before | Reminder notification |
| 3 days before | Daily notification until expiration |
| D-Day (Expired) | Application blocked — upgrade required |
