The iPhone 3GS was discontinued over 5 years ago. It’s hardware cannot run current releases of iOS or apps. Technology advances and changes, and neither Apple nor independent app developers support legacy hardware and operating systems forever.


While you cannot update anything, what you have should continue to work as it always did.
