Videos cannot download on Android 4.4.2

:oops: I can no longer download or play any videos on my Samsung Galaxy Tab S tablet (Android 4.4.2). This is a recent problem. I tried doing a factory reset and reinstalling the Gospel Library app, but still cannot download or play any videos. Does anyone have solution to this?

Because you're on Android 4.4, it's likely a TLS-related issue. Most Android 4.4 devices don't support the latest industry TLS security standards that are enforced by the Church's servers (I believe the Church's servers use the TLS 1.2 standard, which was defined in 2008). I would expect that if you use other apps you would see similar problems.

If you're interested, here's a summary of some of the difficulties in updating an app to support TLS 1.2 from a developer perspective: https://ankushg.com/posts/tls-1.2-on-android/.
