Then, let the download process be completed. What if the new version of the app is compatible with your device but, you still want to use the older version? As a user, I really appreciate this feature. Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments below.
This is about installing a previous version of an app, not dealing with newer versions on an old iOS. So, unfortunately, you will not be able to install older app versions.

To get Comic Zeal on our iPad, we need to make a quick stop at either our computer or another, newer, iOS device.
Does it matter which you use? Fire up the app and search in the search box for the name of your application. Select the app in the search results. At this point, the app will install as expected and you can use it, albeit without the features present in the newer updates. It might not be the most convenient way to go about doing things, but this little workaround is a great way to breath life into old hardware.

If you need older apps for that iPad, if you have a computer with an older version of iTunes version IF you own a computer with an older version of iTunes already on it, try using that version as an older iPad does not need the latest iTunes version.
If you have a computer, but NO iTunes on it, here is a link to the older Not sure of Windows PC system requirement. If you have already downloaded the recent Then directly across and near the center of the iTunes window, there are three category bars. You're not going to have the same experience with an older version of an app on an older device than you will with a newer setup. Speaking of newer setups, though, it looks as if you can only use this download trick with apps that you have previously bought.
If this older device is your sole iOS one then that's true, but if you have a newer one as well, you can do something more. On the newer iOS device, find and buy an app you want — that you know has a previous version which will work on your older machine.
That's the hard part. There's no surefire way of knowing for certain and the best you can do is take an educated guess. If you can find references online to the app being updated around the date of your older device, you're probably in luck. Buy it on the newer device and then it's in your Purchased history on all your iOS devices. And that means also on your older one.
Give it a few minutes for the information to propagate through the App Store but thereafter you should be able to do this download trick and get the previous version that works with your older device. If for some reason there wasn't a version that ever worked on your older device then there's nothing you can do. However, you've at least got that app on your new iOS device and can use it there.

A sync should be initiated, and, when complete, the app s in question should be installed on your device. Article ID: AA Not all apps will offer an old version. If WhatsApp decides not to offer it, you won't be able to download it, sorry. Thank you very much for your valuable information. Is there any app for home button for iOS 4.
You won't be able to get WhatsApp on an iPhone 3G since it's not compatible; hacking solutions are not worth the trouble. If by a home button app, you mean something like AssistiveTouch, I don't know of any. Is there any way to do this from your iPhone? I'm looking to get an older version of NBA 2k13 the v1. If you don't have access to iTunes on a computer, the only other way to be offered an older version of an app is if you had a 2nd iOS device which is compatible with the latest version of the app.
Okay thank you. It's just that I hate the version of the game that I have now and would like the older version back. 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!!!
