Downloading Hulu app with having IOS 9.3.5

Hello,

I have a mini pad that I bought in 2013. I cannot download Hulu because is not compatible with my device. My question is what are my options?

iPad mini, iOS 9

Hulu has started to contact subscribers letting them know that they will be ending support for these devices starting on June 12th, 2019. Owners of devices running 9.3.5 or older versions of iOS will need to upgrade to a new device if they want to continue to access Hulu.


Here is the email Hulu is sending subscribers still using iOS version 9.3.5 or older:


Hulu Will No Longer Be Streaming on iOS Versions 9.3.5 and Below. While we aren’t able to support Hulu app on iOS version 9.3.5 and bellow starting on June 12, 2019, the good news is there are other ways to have a full Hulu Experience. Continue to stream your favorite shows and movies by upgrading to any of our supported devices or operating systems.


The net of this is if you need Hulu on iPad, you need a newer device.

Rbrylawski,

I never received any message from Hulu about this.

Hulu ending streaming services supposedly for iOS 9.3.5 and earlier?

This apears to be true for my iPad 2 and 3 that have the iOS 9.3.5 versions of Hulu and the Hulu app put up a message saying they ended support for my older Hulu versions on those devices.


However, I JUST took out my original, 9-year old, 1st gen, 2010 iPad with an even older version of the Hulu app.

Well, guess what?

Lo and behold, that version of Hulu is still working fine and streaming ALL of my Hulu content just fine and dandy!

So, anyone that still owns an old 2010 iPad and has the older Hulu app on it can, apparently, still stream Hulu from the app.

I'm glad to hear that. This was from Hulu, so I felt it appropriate to share. Whether you'll continue to get Hulu streaming on your device remains to be seen. What we are seeing however, is the systematic (albeit slowly) end of support for more and more apps on older devices.
