How to INSTALL iOS 10 ON MY IPOD TOUCH 5gen

Sorry, you cannot download iOS 10 on an iPod Touch 5th gen. It is only compatible with the 6th gen iPod Touch.

Sorry,

GB

You don't.

The iPad 2, 3 and 1st generation iPad Mini and the iPod Touch 5th gen models are all ineligible and excluded from upgrading to iOS 10.

They all share similar hardware architectures and a less powerful 1.0 Ghz CPU (the iPod Touch 5th gen has an even intentionally slowed 1.0 Ghz CPU that has been clocked down to 800 Mhz) that Apple has deemed insufficiently powerful enough to even run the basic, barebones features of iOS 10.

Why would you want to upgrade, anyways?

Since iOS 8, older iDevice models such as the iPad 2, 3, 4, 1st gen iPad Mini and 5th Gen iPod Touch have only been getting the most basic of iOS features.

Older iPad users get none of the newest and coolest cutting edge features that newer model iDevices, with better hardware specs, can handle with more aplomb.

Sorry and Good Luck to you.
