# POS embedded apps are no longer supported on iOS 9 or earlier

Shopify is deprecating support for Shopify POS on iOS 9, and part of that deprecation involves apps embedded in Shopify POS.

***

As of April 1, 2019, apps that use the Shopify POS App SDK will no longer function on devices that use iOS 9 or earlier. Calls to embedded apps will be intercepted at the application level and merchants will be shown an error page that prompts them to upgrade their device or operating system:
