    It was so weird how apple discontinued the iPad 3 so fast, but kept the 2 around for years. My school district spent a small fortune on getting these iPad 2 models into our classrooms. It was a big deal to have these in class.

      Why weired, it’s a simple point why they done this and still do this with devices…
      The longer they sell a device so cheaper they can sell this, those devices are highly interesting for the education and the business markets cuz those needs devices which are powerful, long living and at least kind of cheap…
      The iPad 2 was just the start in this selling Modell, that’s why they discontinued the high end Modells just after a year (in this case the iPad 3 and 4) and still keep an device like the iPad 2…
      Nower days this border is way more clear so that we now even have a own productline for this purpose and this is the normal iPad (currently the iPad 10 and still the iPad 9)…
      The iPad 9 for example is around since 2021 and still selling where the pro Modells from that time are already all discontinued…
      Where other company’s just produce 3 or 4 alternative devices every year for this purpose Apple just makes one pretty powerful device they could sell for multiple years what’s for sure better for the environment…

    In my experience older Android versions have considerably better app compatibility than old IOS versions, I suppose as a side effect of worse software support. I have a phone in my drawer running an old 4.4.4 Kitkat ROM, and that has support for a surprising amount of apps. Although, it's definitely limited in what it can do nowadays. Android 6 or 7 can still run most modern apps though, and those came out 2015 and 2016. I'd imagine an old Nexus 7 tablet would still run most modern apps, although I expect it would be quite slow.

      That’s actually true. I start to see limits on my old Air 2 on iOS 15, where my old Galaxy Note 4 (which came out the same year), on android 6 can run everything I would need.
      Also, unlike my Air 2, my Note 4 did not get slower with time.

    you could get the ipad to a working state that most of the apps will probably work by downgrading the ipad to older version of ios like 6.1.3 and use an old version of the apps through jailbreaking, yes it’s definitely very annoying that every time you wanted a new apps you need to get the computer, download the ipa file and downloading it using third party apps that potentially have some sort of malware, spyware installed in it but it surely an experience and it does bring up some nostalgia

    The saddest thing is that you didnt even get the full version of geometry dash so you cant try out the editor or run levels like WHAT but from personal experience the ipad mini 1 can run gd levels with 60 fps with under 60K objects. Newer rated level wont run smoothly and WHAT crashes. All the main level run well (fingerdash load time is like 20 seconds) but most Weekly levels wont run and bloodbath runs on 50 fps on average. Trying to open sort of obj heavy levels in the editor will crash (like dream flower by xender game and knots). My conclusion is that only a person that doesnt take youtubeing seriously wont spend 2.99 on a video. Because 2.2 hasnt released yet the min sys req is ios 8 so yeah it will run on ipad 2.

    I had an iPad 2 64 WiFi+Cellular and this exact same problem happened with me. My dad bought it in 2011 for $899 from thailand and that device built my childhood. In early 2022 I sold it for 80$. iPad 2 was indeed a legendary tablet. I miss it till this day.

    My iPad 4 runs UA-cam in 1080p and runs games of Ps2 - Ps5 from a cloud gaming app!
    I use a Chinese Bluetooth controller for games!
    My iPad 4 does things that will blow your minds! 💖
    With my discovery.... Now the users of iPad 2 , iPad 3 & iPad 4 can enjoy Watching UA-cam in 1080p and can play console games from Ps2 - Ps5 including GTA5 using any Chinese Bluetooth controller!
    A good internet is required for smooth gaming!
    BTW, iPad 4 gives much smooth and lagfree console like gaming in games like GTA5 and Forza 5 ...

    2) Also I was able to play lots of games on it, but made the mistake of taking it to an iStore here in Canada and an agent there zapped it with a device and disabled something in my iPad and so I am no longer able to use applications I was using prior to my visit. What a shitty way for Apple to do bsiness! Is there a way I can restore it to a previous date?
    3) Now when I try to Get an application iPad tells me "Unable to Purchase"...even if I had previously purchased a very similar game (puzzle).

    With apps on those old devices it’s just a hit and miss if they will work or not…
    Mostly games that needs an internetconnection to work will mostly don’t work anymore cause the simple fact that the game can’t connect to the server anymore but most games which runs natively on the device will still work…
    For example, an online pvp game will mostly not run anymore but offline games like the shown slither io or games like GTA or the room didn’t need an internetconnection and those games will still work mostly…
