Including basic information in your post will assist us in quickly finding a specific answer to your question. Provide a clear description of what you are trying, where it fails to perform as expected, and the exact wording of error messages. Include your hardware year and model information if you have not already done so in the posting information.


My guess would be you are using older equipment such as an iPhone 6 that cannot update to an iOS version now required by those apps. Typically that's iOS 13 at least but some may require 14. If it is a matter of updating, you can try to update, but if you cannot then your only alternatives are to either live without the apps or to buy newer equipment.


There are different ways to ensure the highest iOS that your device will support is installed on your device.
