What is exact error? "Insufficient security features available on this device."?

There is no official requirements anywhere as far as I know, but they are pretty weak. Even if biometric is not available at all - pin credentials should be sufficient. Do you have screen lock enabled? Which one?

I'm not sure if android11 device can come with no keyguard at all. That should be part of compatibility tests..

There was some fix with strongbox requirement that is not released yet. So you can try to install master version to see if it helps.

Yes that is the error.

Yes I have pin credentials on the tablet. (No biometric)

Has anyone successfully used a tablet android 11 and parity signer??

It is working on android 11. On tablet should work as well, just UI won't be pretty as it's made for portrait. It's about hardware of specific model, or keys were created for another authentication method or something similar. Have you tried current master version or the one in google play?

Just Google play updated version. I'll try the master...
