Want to purchase compatible apps for operating system 6.1.6 in iTunes. Does anyone know how to search via this criteria so we can spend money. This iPod touch is 5 years old and updated fully.
iPod touch, iOS 6.1.6, 5 years old updated fully to 6.1.6
The problem is that very few apps that run on such an outdated iOS as 6.1.6.
The majority of apps today require iOS 7.0 or later.
Apps from the iTunes store can only be searched by name.

To more easily find compatible apps:
iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.
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
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.
