Why Use an Older Version?
While we recommend the latest version, there are valid reasons to use an older NetMirror version:
- Device compatibility — Newer versions may not work on very old Android devices (below Android 5.0)
- Update caused issues — If the latest update introduced a bug on your specific device
- Storage constraints — Older versions are smaller in file size
- Preferred UI — Some users prefer the previous interface design

Frequently Asked Questions
