Hello everybody, on 11/27/2020 I noticed that Thinkable Classic was shut down and does not even show the sign in page. Luckily, I have backed up all of my Thunkable Classic projects from December of 2019 to January or February of 2020. Thunkable back in 2019 would shut down the classic platform some time in July of 2020 but it was still usable. I have no needed projects and I backed all recent versions up already. If you have experienced this with Thunkable Classic recently, please kindly reply below. ---

Hi @guidothethunker > [@Thunkable Classic is Retiring -- What you need to know](http://community.thunkable.com/t/thunkable-classic-is-retiring-what-you-need-to-know/240948): > > Dear Thunkers, As you know, we are planning to retire the Thunkable Classic platform. Why is Thunkable Classic retiring? With Thunkable Classic, you can only build Android apps. With Thunkable X, you can build apps for both Android and iOS. It makes more sense to only have one platform, so our team can focus on putting out the best features and service. What does this mean? On November 1, 2019 , you will no longer be able to sign up for a new account on Thunkable Classic (you will still be… You can still log in and download your aia files but Classic doesn’t support Android apk 29 so it’s not suitable for downloading apk files Hope that helps ---
