AARP App. Needs work. Discriminatory.

Seriously? This looks like a scam in the works. Maybe I'm wrong but your newbie status 6/22 suggests otherwise.

Hi There, Dan here, I just joined and was real excited about diving into all that AARP is about until I was invited to download the AARP App. When I tried to download it, it immediately responded to me with the message : “Unable to continue. You need to have OS16 or higher/later

whatever It was. I’ve come across this message with other companies and I just delete them but AARP is supposed to be for “Seniors” (who, almost all, are on fixed incomes, and can’t afford a $1000.00 fancy phone). I am extremely disappointed with AARP concerning this issue. You can’t tell me that these MBA Computer Software people can’t make this app workable by (almost) all phones that a lot of Seniors can afford !!!!!!! I believe that the “Top People” at AARP might not be aware of this issue as almost all these software people have the latest and greatest phones and equipment afforded them by their 6 figure incomes. I’m not denying their worth but just their shortsightedness to older folks on fixed incomes. 
I hope this message can work it’s way to someone “Up Top” in AARP who can help us “little people” at the bottom of the I-Phone ladder.

You can blame whoever you want, but to be honest when I read you post 1st thing I thought was that you don't have enough memory/space to down load.

I know that new app's/sites and old products don't always mix.

As for the scam statement??????? I didn't see you ask for money.🤔

considering that aarp now allows anyone age 18 and up to join they obviously are not catering only to seniors but to whomever is paying and if the 18 and up crowd is a major part of this program and everyone has a current phone then that is what they are targeting.

How did you manage to create an account? I've wasted my time trying to see if the support team will get things fixed but it's just a waste of time. I tried to open a new aarp account but i was unable to play the instant wins after joining the Aarp Rewards Program. Did it work for you?
