Netflix for iOS 9.3.5

See my user tip on just about every page of this post on how to get older versions of apps that have move to a higher iOS minimum version.

You might be able to still obtain an older version of the Kindle app for your iOS 9 version iPad Mini.

I am not going to post this link, again, for the umpteenth time.

You said the Kindle app should run on any platform. iOS is an operating system, not a platform. It will run on iPad Mini. You just need one that is modern enough to run it.

If you think any iOS device will stay current forever, you're dreaming. Technology continues to move forward and at some point, all older devices become obsolete in one way or another. You likely aren't using an iPhone 3G anymore or that flip phone which was so cool in the late 1990's. Why? Because they became obsolete and lacked the features and options of newer technology.

iPad is no different and one purchased 6 or 7 years ago, simply won't do what the newer devices will do. If they did, why would Apple or any company for that matter keep innovating and creating newer features on newer devices?

Are you sure?

Many users screw up my procedures the first time and have to try, again.

The gist is that you either use a newer iDevice or iTunes 12.6.5 on a computer to download the most recent version of an app, first.

Then, go back to the older iDevice and launch the iOS App Store app and under the Purchased menu option, look for the app you wish to install onto the older iDevice in the Purchases list and then tap the download “cloud” icon and see if the iOS App Store offers you an older, compatible version of the app to download.

This is what you are trying to accomplish.

Yes,

Of course it does.

Everyone screws this up, I do not know why, I really can’t make this user tip any clearer, I keep updating that user post tip to try and make it clearer, but Posters here still need to carefully read.

Glad you got your Kindle app.

Break a rule - You could use capitals for us old folk - “look in PURCHASES do not search.”

In defence of myself and others, with most device destinations you expect to find the same thing whichever route you take. There’s always more than one way to get to something on a computer, I used to tell my students.

You get to the same app on a Mac whether you go from the dock or from launchpad.

It is counter intuitive to get to an item in the app store which behaves differently depending on the route you take.

Search is quicker!

iOS for mobile Apple devices does not work like regular computer OSes, so many of the rules for normal computer OSes do not apply.

It is what it is.

And it doesn’t matter what I change or do with that user tip.

Everyone, EVERY ONE screws up some part of these procedure because they simply do not more carefully read.

What I did to edit that tip this time was to put that “gist” summary comment I used to reply to you, in a couple or replies back, so users reading that user tip know what the goal is of the basic, initial procedures to get to the goal.

I screwed nothing up. I read your original post in the thread which didn't mention Purchases as opposed to searching.

It was marked by OP as helpful, and therefore prominent in my phone version of the forum. You have to work hard to find all replies.

Still Kindle is now working, thank you.

Same trouble, my is old and no more IOS than 9.3.6 but some other programs permit using older versions of Netflix, but once I do the setting the Netflix app doesn´t ask me to install a older version, I simple doesn´t permit options....

This is really bad, becuase we used this tablet for getting kits busy during traveling and now cant use it anymore with netflix, but we can use it with many other apps like youtube, etc

Netflix has had change of policy recently.

Netflix still supports older versions of their app, but will no longer allow an initial download of its older Netflix versions any longer.

HOWEVER,

IF you had an IOS version of Netflix before, in the past, on any of your iOS devices, you can still obtain the older version, again.

Simply Go to the IOS App Store app, in the lower menu, tap Purchases, look in the list for Netflix ( if you ever had Netflix for iOS, it should be in this Purchases list ) tap the download “cloud” icon and if an older version still exists, a pop-up message should appear that an older version exists for your device do you want to download it now?

Tap OK below this pop-up message.

Other than this method AND if you had an older version of iOS Netflix in the past, there is no other way to obtain an older version, now.

Netflix employee LIED to you.

Apple is 100% NOT RESPONSIBLE for anyone else's apps in the IOS App Store.

The availability of such older apps in the iOS App Store is 100% solely the decision/discretion of the app developer.

I did it form the first Netflix app that appear on my menu, the extrange thing was that I did the same with other apps like youtube and facebook and they pop asking me to install an old app, once I accepted system did it. But with Netflix there were no options, just a message telling me the ios was so old.

Following the other rute, thanks for that, I went down to my old purshaces and got Netflix there too, so I finally installed from there..

Thanks for the community help!

Yes I used this link but even I used it the error window poped up. Finally I ve found a tip to remove one file from the iTunes Library folder and it worked. Finally, I installed Netflix app on mi iPod 3, thank you So much for the instruction! You saved my holidays :)

LOOK IN YOUR PREVIOUS BOUGHT APPS ON APP STORE...YOU WILL SEE NETFLIX THERE HOPEFULLY THEN DOWNLOAD THAT "OUTDATED " VERSION - THEN IT WORKS, JUST DID IT.

OBVIOSLY, NETFLIX WORKED ON IT THEN......SO SHOULD NOW

Too old because 9 times out of 10 it is too under-powered to run anything meaningful these days and developers will not write 32 bit apps and banks, Skype, etc will not run them because latest security cannot be applied.

Mine makes a nice bedside clock, a Kindle reader, a lousy browser and naff all else.
