Sumdog – Needs to be updated!

I recently received this information from Sumdog. If you have been using on a tablet or phone please do the following to keep using this resource.

How do I install the Sumdog app?

If you’re using a mobile device you’ll need to use the app instead of browser, as mobile devices don’t have the operating power required for the browser version of games

From 3rd January, older versions than version 80.1.1 will no longer work. This is to support essential updates.

iPads/iPhones

CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE APP

You will need minimum iOS 11.0 or later.

Android Devices and Chromebooks

CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE APP

You will need a minimum Android v5.0 or later.

The latest version of the Sumdog app is version 80.1.1.

From 3rd January, the minimum version of the Sumdog app that will run is 80.1.1. If you are using an older version of the Sumdog app, it will not run until you update to the newest version.
