            So people still use android 2.1?

              Bebe Rexha, 20 Jun 2017Apple didn't kill the App Store on the iPhone 4. Android, what?Android Market is one of many app stores. You can just download apps from any site you want, and they have catalogues with all the previous app versions. So Android loses one market, Apple only has one to lose?

                They should rename the current version back to "Android market"
                The current name is an INSULT to all the adults, that see their Android device as a production tool, and not just like the kids as an alternative to a Nintendo Gameboy....
                :-(

                  Is not like somebody uses it. Let alone the fact that all devices with that store were as good as bended phone.

                      Why not make it today?

                        Apple didn't kill the App Store on the iPhone 4. Android, what?

                          Can't they just side load the APKs? I don't remember at all, too long ago! If some phone still works but still on 2.1 I don't see any point of upgrading just to access Play Store, as long as sideloading works.
