Shortcuts on Older devices

I’ve had my iPhone 5s for more than 8 years, and Just a year ago, I had shortcuts downloaded on it, running the latest version of iOS 12, iOS 12.5.7.


I’ve tried searching for the shortcuts app on the App Store using my iPhone 5s, but it was nowhere to be found, I’ve searched for shortcuts on my iPad running iOS 12.5.7 aswell, and shortcuts was there and I downloaded it, why is it not on the App Store in the iPhone 5s..?

iPhone 5s, iOS 12

Compatibility: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/shortcuts/id915249334

iPhone: Requires iOS 12.0 or later.

iPad: Requires iPadOS 12.0 or later.

iPod touch: Requires iOS 12.0 or later.


Which country is associated with your Apple ID / App Store is not clear from your post. Occasionally, app availability can vary by region. Make sure that both your iPhone and iPad are set to the same region in their App Store settings.


Sometimes, you can download older versions of apps that are compatible with your device. If you've previously downloaded the Shortcuts app on your Apple ID, go to the Purchased section of the App Store and see if you can find it there.
