Examples of apps NOT working on your 1st gen iPad Mini, please.

The iPad Mini 1 is functionally equivalent to the iPad 2.

GIve me an example of an app that is no longer working on your iPad Mini, so I can check this for myself.

Apps just don't stop working if you have a fairly up to date or current version of an app!

I have have an original, 2010 iPad and all of the apps on that iPad still work with their last updated versions for iOS 5.1.1.

Give some app examples from your iPad Mini that either I or someone else here can check out and verify.
