Issue reported by: Applause - Internal team

Action Performed:

2. Launch the app

Expected Result:

The app launches on all compatible devices

Actual Result:

The app crashes at launch on iOS 14.7 Build 1.4.76.0 works without issues
Comment: Can not reproduce this on the same model running iOS 16.7 nor the iPhone 15 Pro Max, iOS 17.4.1 or the iPhone 8 running iOS 15 so seems iOS 14 specific.

Workaround:

n/a

We think that this bug might be related to #vip-vsb

cc @danieldoglas seems like this is coming from the Full story https://console.firebase.google.com/u/0/project/expensify-chat/crashlytics/app/ios:com.chat.expensify.chat/issues/4adc1d894670d34d211593149c632aad?time=last-seven-days&types=crash&sessionEventKey=8277d1bcf278472cbdbc03de18fe257c_1952208087522792385

Is it supposed to support ios 14?

[danieldoglas]

Can we raise that minimum version for our App?

All devices that supported iOS 13, iPadOS 13, iOS 14, and iPadOS 14 also support iOS 15 and iPadOS 15.

[mountiny]

Can we raise that minimum version for our App?

We can, but I think we should make a post to discuss it in Slack to get broader agreement

[danieldoglas]

Yeah, I'll do that. I've also asked Fullstory to investigate that crash.

[luacmartins]

This doesn't seem to be related to the API, so gonna remove the web DeployBlocker label

[danieldoglas]

Discussion is ongoing here: https://expensify.slack.com/archives/C06FWLQE0FR/p1716891784770479 to fix it to version 14.

For now, we'll bump the iOS app min target to version 15.
