At the end of 2015 LinkedIn, recently acquired by Microsoft, launched a new version of its  mobile and tablet app, bringing users everything they love about LinkedIn into a simplified, smarter and more intuitive experience.

However, the platform on Tuesday, said that those who have used older version of the app in the last few months are been intimated that it (LinkedIn) will no longer be supporting this older version after January 15, 2017.

“We hope that you’ll consider upgrading to our new app, which is available on the following mobile operating systems: iOS8 and higher (iPhone 5 and above) and Android Ice Cream Sandwich MR1 (4.0.3/API level 15).

“Upgrading to the new app is easy - prior to January 15 you'll receive a pop-up when accessing the app that will prompt you to upgrade to the new version. After January 15 you can upgrade through either the App Store (iOS) or Google Play (Android). You can also access www.linkedin.com on your device’s web browser”, a message from LinkedIn Team reads.
