### Information for Android 7+ users
If your device running Android OS with version 7 and higher, it is highly recommended to check whether your Termux installation uses our new repository with packages compiled specially for higher Android API levels (24+).
Execute command `termux-info` or look into file `$PREFIX/etc/apt/sources.list`. There should be a line containing following URL:
```
https://dl.bintray.com/termux/termux-packages-24/
```
If not, then it is time to upgrade your installation. This procedure will involve complete erasing of `$PREFIX`, directory where all packages are installed (aka rootfs) but your home directory will be untouched.
So if you decided to upgrade your installation, do the following steps:
1. Ensure that application's version is v0.67 or higher. If not - upgrade.
2. Move all important files, e.g. configs, databases, custom scripts, etc to your `$HOME` (temporarily). Also, save the list of packages that you will need to reinstall.
3. Execute `rm -rf $PREFIX`.
4. Restart Termux application.
5. Restore all your stuff saved in step 1.
