PPTV King 7 will not run latest Sophos Mobile Security

My smartphone will not run the latest version of Sophos Mobile security. It installs but all I get is a blank screen.  It has all the necessary permissions.

It will only run 7.05.2404 and earlier

    Hi Peter jones4,

    The latest SMSec is not officially tested on all this specific device. However, I have forwarded it to our developer (Not sure if we can do something at the moment for this device). If you have an active license, please open a case and contact our support if you would like to proceed to investigate it.

    I do not have a license, I am using the free version from Android play. I tried raising a ticket but I got redirected to the community forum (here)

    Hi Ray,

    I appreciate that the latest version may not be tested but I have to go back to version 7 to get it to work, and it is patchy even then. I have lifted all restriction and allowed all permissions.

    And I get the annoying upgrade prompts every time which I cannot seem to switch off

    Regards...Peter
