  3. The Mac has its own App Store which operates identical to the App Stores found on iOS and iPadOS. Apps submitted to the Mac App Store must be reviewed by Apple and fall within certain rules.

If you're using macOS Mojave or earlier or a Windows PC, use iTunes to share files between your computer and your iOS or iPadOS device.

This iTunes procedure will work with any app that is no longer iOS 9 compatible and has been updated to a new iOS version. For older pay versions of apps, I would contact the developer of the app, first, to find out if a older version of an app still exists on Apple’s app servers as some apps and many games no longer work on iOS 9.

Other ways to share

iCloud Drive lets you securely access all of your documents from your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac, or PC. No matter which device you're using, you'll always have the most up-to-date documents when and where you need them.

With Handoff, you can start a document, email, or message on one device and pick up where you left off on another device. Handoff works with Apple apps such as Mail, Safari, Maps, Messages, Reminders, Calendar, Contacts, Pages, Numbers, and Keynote. It also works with some third-party apps.

AirDrop lets you instantly share your photos, videos, documents, and more with other Apple devices that are nearby.

What you need to use the Finder to share files

  • An iPhone, iPad, iPod touch with the latest version of iOS or iPadOS
  • An iOS or iPadOS app that works with File Sharing

Open shared files

On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, use the app that you chose in the Files tab to open files that you shared from your computer.

Depending on the file type, some apps can't open files in other apps or locations. You can see the list of files in the Files tab of the Finder when your device is connected to your computer.

Back up shared files

When iCloud or your computer backs up your device, it backs up your shared files as well.

If you delete an app with shared files from your iOS or iPadOS device, you also delete those shared files from your device and your iCloud or computer backup. To avoid losing shared files, copy the files to your computer before deleting the app from your device.

One of your favorite apps was recently updated with all new features. Unfortunately, it no longer supports the iOS version running on your device. How would you re-install the older version of the app on your iPhone or iPad?

Unlike before, installing an older version of an iOS app is pretty simple. Albeit the process is slightly under the wraps. Hence, not too many folks would be aware of this important feature. Let me show you how it works!

UPDATE: The method is not working for now. We shall update the post as soon as we find the solution.

How to Re-install Older Version of iPhone or iPad Apps

Note: This simple trick will work with only those apps that were once compatible with the iOS version running on your device. For instance, Facebook had the support of iOS 7. Hence, you can download the app even if it doesn’t support that iOS version.

Step #1. Fire watch free for mac. Launch App Store on your iOS device.

Step #2. Now, search the app you wish to re-install.

Step #3. Once you have found the app, go ahead and install it as usual.

Step #4. Now, you will get a popup that would read something like, “Facebook requires iOS 8, or later You can still download the older version of the app.”

You need to tap on Download the prompt to confirm. Then, let the download process be completed. Once it’s done, launch the app, sign in to it and start using it just like before.

What if the new version of the app is compatible with your device but, you still want to use the older version?

  • Open iTunes.
  • Connect your iPhone and stop any syncing process that fires automatically
  • Now, delete the buggy app from your iPhone
  • In iTunes, click on the “Apps” link from the sidebar. This shows the apps that are available in the last backup. (or basically, all apps that you installed and synced)
  • Find the app whose older version you want to install and drag-n-drop it on the iPhone section in the sidebar. (The device section)
  • Now, all you do is simply Sync your iPhone with iTunes

What if I don’t have a backup?

You can ask any of your friends who *might* have a backup of the app in its older version. Obviously, you cannot sync your iPhone/iPad on their computer so you can simply copy the app. How do i uninstall apps on macbook. To do this (on your friend’s computer):

  • Click on “Apps” section in iTunes
  • Find the app and right-click → Show in Windows Explorer
  • You’ll find the .ipa file. Copy this to your system
  • Once done, you just have to drag-n-drop this .ipa file on your device in iTunes

That’s it!

So, that’s how you can continue to use any app even if its current version isn’t compatible with your device. As a user, I really appreciate this feature. What’s your take on it? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments below.
