You don't, sorry.

Minimum requirements:

YouTube = iOS 14 or later version

Facebook= iOS 13.4 or later version

Most likely, your unidentified iPhone model cannot supports iOS version more recent than 12.5.7, because of hardware (CPU/RAM) incompatibility.

If you ever had Facebook or Instagram installed, then most likely it's on your list of purchases. When you head to the Facebook's lodge on the App Store you tap the download icon (the cloud with the down-pointing arrow). Since the minimum supported version is higher then you may be offered to download the last compatible version for your device. The most recent version for iOS 12.5.7 is still working as expected. I'm claiming that with confidence since I upgraded from iOS 12.4 to iOS 15.8 four days ago.

You may want to download the FaceBook app.


But if you are using an outdated iPhone or iPad for which iOS 12.5.7 is the end of the line, you will not be downloading the current FaceBook app on that iPhone or iPad. If you have one of those iPhones or iPads, your device is incapable of running the current FaceBook app.


That was already explained earlier in this thread.

Apple and Facebook authority can make an app for older IOS Version.


Apple doesn't make the Facebook app. Meta (Facebook) does.


You are free to go and ask Meta to (re-)release a Facebook app for older versions of iOS – if you can find a way to contact them. I doubt if they will oblige, but they are the ones you need to convince if you want it to happen.
