Runtime compatibility

[stefangs]

I want to deploy a runtime created with FMA 13. The FileMaker site says that this will work with Mac OS 10.10 and may also work with later versions. Does anyone here know what the latest OS is for this to work, perhaps even the current one?

Oh, and I have the same question regarding iOS, because this may be great to have on an iPad as well.

Thanks,

Stefan

On the Windows side you may be ok since the backward compatibility is greater there.  But on macOS: don't bet on it working on Mojave or Catalina, and sketchy at best on High Sierra.

So in short: I wouldn't do it.

For completeness sake, I'd like to share with you that I tried it. I installed FM13 on Catalina. The installer 'determined if the software can be installed' and proceeded normally. But after completion, the app could not even be started (it had the slash through the icon). Guess the installer determined wrong 😅

It does work on Windows 10, however, so Wim, you were completely correct in your assumptions.
