Q: Iphone3 functionality

I lost my Iphone5 and found my old 3. Can I get a new sim card and use the old phone? Can I download apps (like UBER) on my old phone? Friends are telling me I can't get any apps on it

iPhone 3GS, iOS 6.1.3

Greetings reyesmbt,

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!

I understand that you recently went back to your older iPhone 3. If you do decide to get the service re-enabled on it and would like to use current apps, I would suggest reading over the attached article first. Keep in mind that some newer apps may not have older versions that are compatible with the iPhone 3 that you would be using.

Install the latest compatible version of an app on an earlier version of iOS or OS X - Apple Support

Cheers,
Joe
