Is MobileID not working on your phone? Check your mobile phone model
Why my MobileID is not working Suddenly?
As mobile phone companies regularly update their operating systems to enhance performance and security, older models often find themselves left behind due to hardware limitations. This trend has a ripple effect on applications, which also update to align with the latest operating systems, creating compatibility issues for users of older devices.
A recent development highlights this challenge: BankID, a widely used electronic identification system in Sweden, will soon be incompatible with certain Huawei mobile phones. According to Mobile BankID sources, the affected models include all Huawei devices newer than the P30 series, which was released in 2019. This issue, however, is not unique to Huawei.
Reports indicate that several older iPhone and Samsung models will also face similar problems. Specifically, iPhones 8 and older may soon be unable to use BankID, as they cannot support the latest iOS updates required for the application to function. Swedish news media have confirmed this limitation, although the exact timeline for when BankID will cease to work on these models remains unclear.
Samsung’s Galaxy S20 series is also approaching the end of its update cycle, meaning these devices will soon no longer receive the necessary updates to support BankID.
In summary, the following mobile models are expected to face compatibility issues with BankID due to their inability to receive the latest software updates:
- Huawei models newer than the P30 series
- iPhone 8 and older
- Samsung Galaxy S20 series
Users of these devices should prepare for the eventuality of needing to upgrade their phones to continue using BankID and other applications that require the latest operating systems.
