 ### Angular Version Compatibility
 
-Given the forward compatibility of the Angular compiler, v7 of our SDK will only work with Angular 10 and above. Previously, it was possible to use the SDK with versions <10, although we officially only supported Angular 10-13 as peer dependencies. If you are using Angular <10 in your project, we recommend staying on the latest 6.x version until you can upgrade your Angular version.
+As in v6, we continue to list Angular 10-13 in our peer dependencies, meaning that these are the Angular versions we officially support.
+If you are using v7 with Angular <10 in your project and you experience problems, we recommend staying on the latest 6.x
+version until you can upgrade your Angular version. As v7 of our SDK is compiled with the Angular 10 compiler and we upgraded
+our Typescript version, the SDK will work with Angular 10 and above. Tests have shown that Angular 9 seems to work as well
+(use at your own risk) but we recommend upgrading to a more recent Angular version.

 ## Angular Version Compatibility
 
-For Angular 10-13 use the latest version of the Sentry Angular SDK. In case
-you are using an Angular 9 or earlier, use version 6.x of the SDK as newer versions do not support Angular <10.
+The latest version of this SDK officially supports Angular 10-13. If you are using an older version of Angular and experience problems with the Angular SDK, we recommend downgrading the SDK to version 6.x.
