Analyse 5.5.2 – Jewels in the Crown (pt 2) By Seyf Altindal Askiaanalysis 2nd December 2019 ShareFacebookLinkedInTwitter This is part 2 of a series of articles on automating tasks in Analyse. According to the new Askia tagline, you can now automate insights. The claim is bold and possibly premature.

Of course, this implies that we sometimes also need to drop support for older versions of these development tools. Either because maintaining them is time-consuming or because of breaking changes introduced in subsequent platform updates. We have therefore decided to drop support for such obsolete mobile OS versions. Here’s the breakdown: iOS…
