Can Voyager be built for legacy iOS devices? (lemm.ee)

I have been able to backport some flutter iOS apps to 32bit legacy devices. This is only in some cases where all their dependencies are compatible + some tweaking of build scripts.

I wonder if Voyager can be backported, as it's crossplatform (react native?) app. Before I dig does anyone know if this is possible?

EDIT: I'm not asking the devs to do anything, I'm asking anyone familiar with the code if they know whether this is feasible before I start digging

I understand, but he's gotta look forward. We all have to work together and understand each other's challenges and unfortunately, its actually doable and far more so for you to upgrade regardless of any budgetary constraint.

There's plenty of older generation "new" phones (iPhones) to look at and I really hope you find one that works for you, if its refurbished its even cheaper. Check Amazon :) for the deal$

Edit: What model is it, out of curiosity?

I'm using voyager on my iphone just fine. This is for my old ipad (ipad 4, iOS 10.3.4).

I have built some flutter apps with an older version of xcode & flutter and they work just fine. Guess it was worth a try asking here.
