Make application compatible with older Android

[Lightjohn]

Possibly Android 6 for larger audience purpose

I believe yes If I make application support Android 6 it would support android 6 to 10+
But 6 Might not be a good idea as it's really old and in my code is not compatible...

your app is great so id love to see more people be able to use it also

I had a look and that I would to rewrite some part in java old style.
There is not a lot of code so definitely possible but I will wait and see if more people are interested.

I was really happy when I saw your project. Is there any chance at least provide support for Android 7 instead of 6 for now?
Most emulators people use have Android 7 installed so me and all the others are really suffering due to the issue especially that emulators have even worse performance than regular phones.

I have wrote few suggestions similar to this project in hopes maybe it can be added as an option in tachiyomi.

I will have a look, adding Android 6-7 support might be easier for me than adding android 11 for now

[Lightjohn]

I published a release that should work with Android 6, could someone try it?
Any feedback would be appreciated

[Lightjohn]

Second try... Between two release I forget how to do it.... Sorry

[Lightjohn]

I updated the apk, you can just download it again

[Lightjohn]

Nice seems good then. I will wait for more feedback but just you being able to open the app is good enough.
Thanks for the quick feedbacks :)

Sorry for the late update. I was interested in this feature so I made my implementation of splitting as an option in the settings on PR on upstream https://github.com/tachiyomiorg/tachiyomi/pull/7029.

Nice, you are doing the right solution. Mine was only temporary so if it could get accepted it would be nice.
