      Hey there! I didn’t knew that I can display my magic mirror via browser using any browser. When I did it in my phone I thought that maybe y can do it in my old android tablet and have 2 mirrors for the price of one. But I find myself in front of a wall now because de native browser that came in my tablet is not capable of displaying the mirror interface. I’ve seen that s couple of persons where able to do it but I want to know if it was whit android 2.3, in that case what browser did you use? And witch version of that browser?

        @dude31222 our browser code, and many modules, require JavaScript level ES6.

        es6 was approved in 2015.

        select just the js API checkbox

          What might work: Install Firefox 47 (this version partially supports ES6 and runs on Android 2.3).

          Another approach would be to find a custom ROM for your device. There won’t be an up-to-date version, but maybe at least one that allows you to use a somewhat newer browser.

            @KristjanESPERANTO i been trying firefox 47 but it crashes, and i was not able to find a firmware update or any custom rom for my coby kyros mid7125 so… looks like its the end of the line for it, i will try to make something whit widgets to ‘emulate’ the modules. It’s very hard for me to throw away old devices but what can i do? thank you both for your answers.
