New Lumia 650 cannot download PowerApps. Not enough memory.

[MRCL]

This is just unbelievable. This is a 2015 phone! Any possibility to use powerapps in my 650 in the future?

[MRCL]

Actually it is a 2016 phone. The specs say it has 1GB Ram. But PowerApps says it does not have the 750MB it requires. Who is right here?

Me, too.
Um...i will use my old android phone, while waiting Surface phone.

Today, PowerApps requires 2GBs of RAM on Windows Phone.  We are working on lowering that requirement and will keep you posted on our progress.

Thanks,

Chris

Why do the requirements state 750MB, then?

[AndyPennell]

Unfortunately the Store lists the app's requirements, not the Phone's requirements. The Phone memory requirements are currently 2GB. (Source: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-in/library/windows/apps/mt617330.aspx )

Any news on the front?

So (the victim inside me is saying) you're probably going to leave even us, diehard Windows Phone users, in the lurch like everybody else, eh?

Or will you make us proud and build a version of PAS that will work on existing Windows Phones. I know, you're going to give us a Christmas surprise and ship Surface Phones this year...wait, will Surface Phones have enough RAM to work with PAS?

Can you tell i have issues here? <g/>

p.s. make that obscure apsx page link more discoverable. That way i won't be as emabarrased as i tell it in another post to this forum on this issue.

Can anyone at Microsoft actually tell us if they are going to get PowerApps on to a 1gb phone?

This is a simple yes or no but obviously we also want to get a timeframe if you are.

Don't let us down now, there's other phones that do work, we don't have to stick with Lumia's if you really can't run your own apps.

This is not a solution, just an explanation
