It’s Android, it’s apps porting, and it’s so fun! Here we go with our this-time-of-the-year article of Galaxy-new Apps for Galaxy-tad-old device. Shared here are Galaxy S7 apps for Galaxy S6 and Note 5 users, and we think more phones like Galaxy S4 and S5, Note 2 and Note 3, Grand series, Alpha, A3, A5, A7, A9, etc. will be supported soon, give or take few apps and features.

It’s actually the OS version that is more important thing here. Right now, these apps are said to work on Marshmallow only. So, we are limited to S6 series (S6, S6 Edge and S6 Edge Plus) and Note 5 devices that Samsung has released Marshmallow on. For now, only S7 Galaxy Apps and S7 Theme Store are fully working on Android 5.1.1 Lollipop. So, here you go most Samsung users!
