News and Events

Are you ready for KitKat End of Support?

As previously communicated, HP Workpath will end VAV support for apps targeting KitKat firmware (Platform version 19.x) on December 1, 2021.

In addition to ending VAV support, HP has also decided to explicitly prohibit upload of apps targeting KitKat firmware to App Center (starting on December 1, 2021). This way, you won’t have to wait for VAV results in case you have unintentionally targeted KitKat firmware in your app.

Why end support for apps targeting KitKat firmware?

HP regularly introduces device firmware updates to improve functionality, reliability, and security. This includes major Android upgrades and patches. KitKat is much older and therefore less secure than Oreo and Android 10 (Platform 26.x and 29.x respectively) which are now available in firmware upgrades for all devices in the Workpath fleet. By removing VAV support for KitKat firmware, we are able to maintain confidence in the security of the Workpath Platform.

How do I know if my app is affected?

Your app is affected if any of the following conditions are true:

The Workpath Platform Version in the HPK manifest file is less than 26.3
The Android minSdkVersion in the apk manifest is less than 26
The Android targetSdkVersion in the apk manifest is less than 26

What do I need to do?

Target Oreo (Platform version 26.3, Android SDK Version 26) or later as the minimum version supported for any new app uploads.
Communicate the need to upgrade device firmware to your app’s user community as soon as possible. A table of firmware versions and their corresponding platform versions can be found here.
Remove older versions of your app with KitKat firmware support from App Center as soon as feasible.

HP Workpath to End VAV Support for Apps Targeting KitKat on December 1, 2021

Starting December 1, 2021 KitKat (Platform version 19.x) support will be reported as a High issue in the VAV report -- an automatic VAV failure. All existing versions of your app supporting KitKat will continue to work as expected.

We are also strongly encouraging all customers to upgrade their HP Enterprise printers to the latest firmware for continued support for the latest HP Workpath applications and the most secure FutureSmart firmware version.

Why this change?

HP regularly introduces device firmware updates to improve functionality, reliability, and security. This includes major Android upgrades and patches. KitKat is much older and therefore less secure than Oreo and Android 10 (Platform 26.x and 29.x respectively) which are now available in firmware upgrades for all devices in the Workpath fleet. By removing VAV support for KitKat, we are able to maintain confidence in the security of the Workpath Platform.

How do I know if my app is affected?

Your app is affected if any of the following conditions are true:

The Workpath Platform Version in the HPK manifest file is less than 26.3
The Android minSdkVersion in the apk manifest is less than 26
The Android targetSdkVersion in the apk manifest is less than 26

What do I need to do?

Begin targeting Oreo (Platform version 26.3, Android SDK Version 26) or later as the minimum version supported for new app submissions as soon as feasible.
Communicate the need to upgrade device firmware to your app’s user community as soon as possible.
Remove older versions of your app with KitKat support from App Center as soon as feasible.
