I can't download Snapchat on my iPod Touch 4G- it says I need IOS 7 which I can't get. However, I was able to download an older version of the app from iTunes last weekend without any problems. How do I download an earlier version of Snapchat?

I figured out a solution you just simply have to make a new account

To download an app not available for your IOS version, here is the solution from Apple - Install an app on an earlier version of iOS or OS X - Apple Support. In a nutshell, you go to iTunes on your computer (Must be signed into the iCloud account that is associated with the phone.), go to Store, then Apps. Download the app into iTunes. Now go to you phone, go to App store, go to Your Apps, go to Apps not on phone. It should be top of the list. Download the app... a box may pop up saying that this version of the app won't work with your phone. But it will look back for a version that will. Hit download. Done. If there isn't a previous version that is compatible, there will be no Download button.

I need to update to ios 7 on my ipod 4th generation which has ios 6.1.6 and to get apps like shou and other apps that I really need. But I can't. If the people who work at apple are reading this... please make it so ipod 4th generations at ios 6.1.6 can update to the latest ios. I would be really relieved and I'm sure quite a few people have this problem.

As already stated in this discussion, the 4G iPOd's hardware does not support higher than 6.1.6. The limiting hardware is the that the 4G only has 256 MB of RAM.

HI hbhvyc

I have a problem like that too. I previously had snapchat on my iphone 4 before it broke. I bought a new one and signed into my account. I had been able to download an older version of snapchat on my other Iphone 4 but this time I'm not able to download it. My other iphone was a 4s by the way so maybe that has something to do with it? The one I own now is just a iphone 4.
