Hey @jackiecookie
The New Architecture is not relevant here. You won't be able to ship apps for versions below 15.1 on React Native 0.76+, that's regardless of you using old or new architecture. Sadly, you'll have to either stay on React Native 0.75 or use a different tool. We try to give ample time to our users whenever we bump a minimum versions of our tools. Maintaining React Native is a huge challenge and we want to make sure we focus our limited capacity on supporting the majority of users. |

Hi there,
I'm working on a hybrid application that embeds React Native to implement certain features. While we've successfully upgraded our Android app to the new architecture without issues, I'm encountering challenges with iOS version support during the React Native upgrade.
Our iOS app needs to support a minimum version of iOS 13.1 and above. we still have a portion of our user base on versions below iOS 15.1.
Given that the new architecture specifies min_ios_version_supported=15.1, I'm wondering if there might be any recommended approaches to ensure all our iOS users can still benefit from the full React Native new architecture? I'd be extremely grateful for any guidance you could offer on this matter.
Here's what I've tried so far for iOS:
Directly launching with the new architecture:
On iOS 15.1+: Works correctly
On iOS 14.6: Crashes on launch
