Have a few iOS apps that have been using mergMicroPhone for audio recording. The versions built with the latest LiveCode release v9_6_1 won't launch on iOS 9 or 10. The app terminates immediately after showing the splashscreen. I looked at the iOS console log and found this error:
Startup error: failed to load external: mergMicrophone
The checkbox for mergMicrophone *is* checked and the apps load on iOS 14 just fine. Any ideas what might be causing it? Should I still be using mergMicrophone for audio recording?
Thanks.

It sounds like older versions are no longer supported, according to the release notes.
We currently support building against the following versions of the iOS SDK:
10.2 (included in Xcode 8.2)
11.2 (included in Xcode 9.2)
12.1 (included in Xcode 10.1)
13.2 (included in Xcode 11.3)
13.5 (included in Xcode 11.5)

Re: Problem with mergMicrophone on old iOS
Ah, ok. I missed that. If they're now setting a higher base iOS version that could be altering apis that mergMicrophone relies on.
