App store download legacy apps

I cant believe this actually works, it's simple and works exactly how it says and the work around does work, thanks a lot for this help!!! I was becoming so discouraged with my iPad gen 1 hand-me-down. Not anymore - this workaround works and now my iPad is not just a boat anchor! One important detail I noticed was that when I used it for my iPod Touch 4th Gen after downloading in iTunes, back on the iPod there was an indication on the homepage that the App was downloading, but it never completed.

Then I went back to the App Store on the iPod, re-selected the App, selected install, and hey presto I was asked if I wanted the older version. Thanks one million for this clarification!!! I have a problem. I wish to download shadow fight 2 on a Ipod Touch do not know gen but is has iOS 5 it can run on the operating system yet it crashes on loading screen. How do I download a older version of the app which will use less processing power? If your iPod is compatible with the latest version of an app, you won't be offered an older one.

The only exception would be if you previously owned an older version of the app and it resides in your iTunes library, in which case you could refer to the "Downgrading Apps" section of this article. This article allowed me to download older apps into an original iPad. I wonder have you find a solution? I have a go pro 4 and also want to use my old ipod touch 4th gen to control it.

Do you know how? A way to get around this would be brilliant. I did everything I could to download the app that I had onto my iPad 1 original , and it installed okay, but when I tap on the app to open it, it goes black and then crashes. How do I make it work properly please? By matti. It doesn't offer me the possiblity to download the last compatible version. I want to download the Soundcloud app.

I guess, I tried to download the app 6 mouth ago and it offered me the last compatible version at that time. Is it possible that there was a change with the introduction of iOS 8? No, you should still be able to download older versions of apps, there was no change with iOS 8.

However, not all developers will let you download older versions of their apps. I would check with the developer of Soundcloud and see if they offer this. Thank you for this article! NetFlix lives again on my resurrected 3G running albeit slowly iOS4.

Thank you. I got a compatible version of Skype for my iPod 4th gen!!! Thank you so much! It's really work for me, the workaround. The App requires iOS 7 so it won't let me download it from the App store. I tried getting the app on my computer then installing it on my synced device to get an older version but the message asking me if I want to install the older version never comes up.

It only says that I need iOS for the app to download. I had the previous version of the app on my ipod up until 10 min ago before I deleted it to download the new one before I knew that I needed iOS 7 for the app , but I don't know if I have ever backed up my ipod before to try to downgrade the current app.

Any suggestions? Thanks a bunch. Note that not all apps offer older versions. If you don't have the app in your iTunes library on your computer, then the older version is lost, sorry.

Dear Apple Club, I have the older version of an app on my 1st gen I pad. What I am trying to do is to get this particular app onto my new I pad air. I have DL'd the app from I tunes when I synced my devices, but the version that showed up on my Air, did not have any of my data on it from the older version although I logged in.

Could you advise me step by step as to how to resolve this problem? I asked the app developers, but I think they are from a foreign country and are not getting back with me.

If I didn't really love this app I wouldn't mess with it. Thanks bunches! There are different ways that apps store data, and we probably wouldn't have knowledge of a particular app, so you'll probably have to wait for a reply from their support.

I have an app, Music Tube, that I have updated twice since the version I like, and last night I was able to go back to the most previous version using a video on Youtube, which I think showed the same way. Is it possible to go back to the version before it?

If I can't do it on my own computer, I told my cousin about it. Maybe she hasn't updated it since then, but she might of. Enjoying Spotify right now, not as fancy as the latest version I can see in my android mobile but oh I don't mind. It's the Music that matters. Thank you, thank you, thank you! When Yahoo Weather added ads I tried this method of local installation to get around it. It worked! This works brilliantly! These instructions are a lot better than Apple's as they assume you already own the app!

By Jonika. Instagram used to let download the last compatible version with my ios6 4th gen iPod and now it won't let me redownload. Instead of the message being:the newest version requires ios7 but the latest compatible version can be downloaded, and then it giving me the option to download the other version it just tells me: this application requires ios7 to be opened and used and the only option below is ok Please Help.

I just now downloaded Instagram on iOS 6 without issue - the older version was still offered. Do you have an existing copy of the app that you are trying to update?

Are you using a different Apple ID than when you downloaded it before? Both of these could be the cause of not being offered an older version. When was the last time you downloaded it successfully?

I have the exact same problem as jonika r. I had Instagram on my iPod 4th gen and I deleted it like usual but this one time it didnt pop up the option to download the last compatible version. I am still using the same exact apple ID as before but same problem it only tells me that the app requires ios7 or later still no option to download the last compatible version.

Click Download to get the older version, and the app store will chew on your request for a minute, and start installing. However, this procedure does not allow you to access deprecated cloud services, if the app developer has shifted to a new architecture. It is also, obviously, not the most recent version of the app, and will likely lack some features found in the newest version.

This same procedure can also be used to download apps that have been stricken from the App Store — if you own them already.
