Sounds like you have a 4G or later iPod. The 4 G can only go as high as 6.1.6 and many apps not require iOS 7 or later.

You may be able to install an earlier, compatible version by:

Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)

App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club

App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app

You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.
