the latest software version I can update on my ipod touch is ios 6.1.6 however, the app store now requires software version over 7 (which I'm aware I can't get). how can I download older versions of apps from app store that are compatible with ios 6?
iPod touch, iOS 6.1.6
Check this support document and see if that helps. Install the latest compatible version of an app on an earlier version of iOS or OS X - Apple Support
I believe it is the same way as normal.
Simply request the download "Get" and it will tell you that it is sending you an earlier version of the app. If it flat out tells you your iOS version is out of date, then I believe it is because it is because there is no app in the app store for the iOS version you are requesting - and if ever there was, then perhaps it was pulled at the developer's request.
ios 6.1.6
