While this is technically possible, we do not recommend it. Notifications, Reminders, Field Service Activity and other data may not sync between devices and may cause problems. Why does NW Publisher app have minimum OS requirements? To keep NW Publisher app secure and reliable, at times it is necessary to raise the minimum requirements to run the app. This is a requirement from Apple and Google to use the latest security features. We try to maintain the same minimum requirements as JW Library. Please see https://www.jw.org/en/online-help/jw-library/apple/faqs/. Please do not contact us and ask us to change these minimum requirements, as that would greatly reduce the security and reliability for all users worldwide.
