Month after month, Google updates its developer dashboard that tells app makers which versions of Android are regularly accessing the Google Play Store. Month after month, everyone in the mobile industry is stunned that Android 2.3 Gingerbread refuses to go away. Tens of millions, maybe even hundreds of millions, of smartphones and tablets with access to the Play Store are stuck on a version of Google’s mobile OS that’s soon going to turn three years old.

Instead of ignoring Gingerbread, the team over at Vine decided to embrace it by updating their app to support it. For those who haven’t heard about Vine (seriously, who are you?), it’s a social network where people share seven second videos. If you’re on Gingerbread, you’re not going to be able to upload Vines, but you will be able to see Vines, which is a whole lot better than nothing if you ask me.

Should more developers update their apps for those too stubborn to update their devices? I’m going to go out on a limb here and say no. If you know someone who uses an Android phone that’s stuck on Android 2.3, chances are they don’t even care that they own a smartphone. They’ll use the browser once or twice a week, send a few text messages, maybe even install WhatsApp, but that’s the extent of their smartphone usage.

So just don’t waste your time on those users.
