Document recommended iOS versions target and Android SDK minimum version

We should add this to docs.expo.io as well

@brentvatne I love Expo FileSystem API, so reliable and consistent across platforms. But I am stuck by the need to support iOS 9.0.

  • Do you think it would be risky to force iOS 9.0 when only FileSystem is used in unimodules ?
  • Do you now how to override minimum iOS version in podspec dependencies ?

I want to use only expo-local-authentication. Is it necessary to increase iOS version from 9.0 to 10.0?

Unfortunately, we can't guarantee that all unimodules work against all iOS versions. We have previously decided to only support iOS 10+, given the usage statistics results. When it comes to FileSystem I think it should be safe to assume that same code will work on iOS 9, however, when it comes to local-authentication I wouldn't be so sure.

To override minimum iOS version in podspec I would use patch-package. What one would need to change would be this line.
