Can i install GarageBand on iPad 2 with 9 iOS?

Hello! I have the good old iPad 2, and it has iOS 9 maximum.

In appstore GarageBand page said that iOS 12 needed.

So, that's it. No GarageBand for me?

You can if you can get access to a device running iOS12 and "buy" it there. Then go back to the iOS9 device and re-download it from your purchases list. It will offer an iOS9 compatible version.

I did it 4 days ago with an iPhone SE and an iPad2 with a series of apps including Garageband. Of course Apple can change things any time it wishes so I can't say if it still works today or even worked 5 minutes after I did it.
