However, I was able to install MODS on a tiny iPad Mini 2 (iOS v12.5.5) and literally “it just works.” I am really excited about the potential, especially the Lyrics and Metronome capabilities. When I squint closely at the list of supported devices, it looks like maybe the Pro version is supported, so sadly I’m out of luck with the nice, big screen. However, it is not the “iPad Pro” version of the hardware and MODS won’t install. I mention this as my band has several older - I guess in today’s world they would be considered obsolete - Apple devices (iPad 4th Generation with iOS v10.3.3, just above the minimum version for MODS to my understanding). Not to hijack the topic, but in addition to adding Android devices, I’m curious as to the restrictions on older iOS hardware and would like to see some broader support for Apple hardware. Is that really what you want? Never use anything wireless on stage that you cannot exchange within 2 minutes with a simple cable. This may be practicable at home or in your rehearsal room, but on stage, there can be a lot of devices fighting for the 2.4 GHz frequencies (wireless microphones for example), and a lot of interfering transmitters as well. The question is, if this is really useful for live situations - remember you have to provide an own WIFI/WLAN network on stage, and connect all your smartphones to it, and your computer as well. I would not bet on Android mods for VST live tbh. Or there were too few users ready to actually buy it - perhaps iOS users are used to spend a lot of money on apps, while Android users aren’t. But no, Android seems to be evil in Steinberg HQ. If they at least gave it away in its current state for free and unsupported. Well, they had Cubase iC Pro for Android a few years ago, and it still works very well on latest android phones, but the only way to get a license today is doing illegal things, because they stopped selling it.
