Switzerland: AGOV to End Support for Older Android Devices
For individuals relocating to Switzerland, this means ensuring their Android device is running a version newer than 10 by April 2026 to access essential digital government services like tax filings or residency permits.
Flootloop has detected a change in Switzerland’s digital government services compatibility rules. As of April 22, 2026, Android devices running version 10 or older will no longer be permitted for using AGOV, Switzerland’s central authentication solution for digital government services.
This update is relevant for individuals relocating to Switzerland, as AGOV is essential for accessing various official online services, including those related to visas, taxes, and residency permits. Future residents should ensure their devices meet the updated compatibility requirements to avoid disruptions in accessing crucial digital government functions.
