The Android 12 is now unsupported (2025.07.05)

Currently I am still using a Motorola Moto G22 (2022) smartphone with the latest security updates from 2025.03.05, which I installed on 2025.03.24.

In the previous few weeks I experienced problems about notifications with WhatsApp, and I noticed that there is an available WhatsApp update, and I updated it on 2025.07.03.

Today (on 2025.07.05) I checked the Android system updates too, and there is no available updates since March.

I checked the Wikipedia too, and according to Wikipedia, it became unsupported as of 2025.03.03.

According to the TechRadar and to the

, the support for Android 12 is officially ended on 2025.03.31.

So approximately four months ago.

And since newer versions of Android are not available for the Motorola Moto G22 smartphone, soon I will have to buy a new smartphone, or a new tablet, or a new laptop.

Because I really would not like to manage my bank account and my investments with an outdated, unsupported operating system, which is more exposed to security risks than the currently supported versions.

According to the Wikipedia, Android 12 was the fourth most widely used version of Android in the previous month (in June).

If you also use older devices, then it is highly recommended to check the availability of the software updates for security reasons.
