Question

How do I install the wikiHow Android app on an older Android tablet?

Top Answerer

The wikiHow Android app requires you to have at least Android 4.0 or up. First, check your tablets Android version. If you do not have Android 4.0 or later, then try to update it; if you cannot update your tablet, then that means that it is no longer supported by the manufacturer. At this point, you can try to root it, but this is not recommended since it can slow down your tablet or break it. At this point, the best way to get wikiHow on your tablet is to go to the mobile site through your browser.

Do not download the wikiHow Android app from an unverified source. It is recommended to use Google Play Store, Amazon app store, or similar trusted services.
