There are virtually NO MORE third party Web browsers left for 8-10 year old iPads!Īvailable and more popular third party Web browser choices are pretty much GONE, now. To start, I would NOT use that over 4-year old default iOS Safari Web browser is too old, not secure and not safe to use to access the Internet, any longer. If you want to attempt to use this iPad, instead of simply returning it, geting your money back and purchasing a new or much, MUCH newer, used iPad Model.

You purchased an almost 10-year old iPad.

I hope this information provides helpful and succinct clarity as to your available options - and the limitations of your current iPad. Of current models, even the entry-level iPad8 has specifications and capabilities that will massively outperform you current iPad - and is compatible with the vast majority of current Apps. As such, if you want or need to access most current Apps, requiring more recent versions of iOS, you’ll need to consider replacement of your iPad with a newer or current model.

As older versions of Apps are removed from the Apple App Store, you’ll not be able to (re)download or install them - which may severely limit the usefulness and utility of your iPad. You may wish to consider that compatible Apps for your iPad are increasingly difficult to find - as third-party developers are increasingly dropping support for older versions of iOS preceding iOS11/12/13. iPad2, iPad3 and iPad mini1 are all obsolete. This limitation cannot be bypassed these are 32-bit architecture devices, whilst all recent versions of iOS/iPadOS are designed for 64-bit hardware platforms. Your iPad cannot be updated to iOS 10 or later major versions of iOS, as the internal hardware does not meet the minimum technical requirements for new versions of iOS/iPadOS. IPad2, iPad3 and iPad mini1 can only be updated to iOS 9.3.5 (WiFi Only models) or iOS 9.3.6 (WiFi & Cellular models).Īpple ended update support for these models in September 2016.

Regrettably, you have purchased an obsolete model of iPad.
