Generation 1 and Generation 2 Quick Comparison

In May 2013, with the 4.0 release of the ThingSpace Platform, Verizon began offering two Wireless Network Services SDK options:

Generation	2G	3G	4G	Backwards-compatible with versions before 4.0	Latest Version
Generation 2	Yes	Yes	Yes	No	5.13, May 2019
Generation 1	Yes	Yes	No	Yes	4.4.3, May 2015

Choose the Generation 2 SDK to develop a new application or to update an existing application for 4G devices.
Choose the Generation 1 SDK if you are maintaining an existing application based on an SDK released prior to May 2013 and do not need either 4G device support or other new features.
