Netflix for iOS 9.3.5

this is untrue. i was running netflix on an ipad 3 running 9.3.5 and i wiped it to give it to my mother, but she could not download it as apple does not allow older versions to be downloaded for new users. it is part of the planned obsolescence.

You absolutely CAN family share with different apple IDs. I added my friend’s kids to my family share (they had to approve my request). After our families were linked they were able to follow my directions above and get Netflix on their ipad 4s from my sons ipad2. It literally took me 5 minutes....and they are happily watching Netflix!

I use my ipad mini mk1 as a bedside alarm clock. There are so many apps that are no longer available for 32bit that its almost obsolete. I even tried to download an Agatha Christie ibook but it said ios12 or later.

Bought a mk4 mini.

That procedure works just fine for users who already own a copy of the Netflix app or any other app.

It gets much more complicated when you are trying to obtain a new, but older version of Netflix, or any app, that has updated its minimum iOS requirement above what the older iDevice is capable of running.

Unless you have a device which is capable of running iOS 11 or higher, you won't be able to download Youtube. Most apps by now have moved on to 64 bit technology. Devices frozen at iOS 9.3.5 are incapable of running 64 bit apps.

I found an old version of Netflix that runs on 9.3.5. I can share a copy with you if you need it

That won’t work, IF, you do not own a newer Apple device to do this with.

That is why I keep posting my procedures using an older version of iTunes on a computer.

The ipad mini will not run ios 11.

its kinda the pretext of the whole thread.

If you need the advantages of the newer iOS levels, then it's time to get a newer iPad capable of running those levels.

Strange.

I was getting iOS 10 updates from Netflix up until very recently.

I see the very latest version of Netflix has gone totally all iOS 11, now.

Not sure if this means that Netflix has finally decided to remove all of their past older versions, or not, though.

If you already downloaded an older app for your older iDevice under your own Apple ID and password, then the re-downloading of that older version is very easy.

It is when you never had the app to begin with and/or setting up an older iDevice as new with a new Apple ID and password that getting the older version of a newer iOS compatible app becomes more difficult.

By the way when you get that iPad 2 back for your Grandson to use, it is best to set up that iPad with his own Apple ID and password, if he us going to be the main user of this iPad.

That means that if there are any apps that have moved on to iOS 10 and/or 11, an older version of an app must now be gotten using the two possible methods I meticulously outlined here in my previous replies in this posting or from my link here in the Apple Support Community user tips.

Downloading Older iOS 9.3.5 Versions of Apps ONLY Available Now for iOS 10 or Later

If your Grandson plays a lot of popular games on an iPad, you may find that some of the more popular game developers purposely move their games ahead to new iOS versions and and three things may happen.

The game developers remove their older game versions from the iOS App Store servers, discontinue any support and/or completely disable the functionality of the older versions of their games.

Good Luck to You!

That procedure is already in my comprehensive link in my post 6 replies above yours.

There are actually three ways to get an older iOS App for older iDevices as I have outlined in my posted reply link that I have been posting in these iPad/iPhone communities for the past 2 years, or so.

This ONLY works. IF you have a newer iDevice to do this!

If you don't ( and many iPad users don't seem to have/own newer iDevices ) you need to use my older iTunes method on a computer to accomplish this.

Absolutely agree. It’s a fact that 32bit ipads are obsolete. They set a trend back in the day, but now they just don’t cut it. Mine can barely browse let alone watch online movies.

I think some of the frustration can be laid at the superb build quality of ipads and it seems such a pity that something with such a beautiful feel in the hand is now obsolete. I take that as a compliment to the designers. But that’s modern life. Progress brings obsolescence and a great excuse to upgrade.

Mine makes a great bedside clock.

If you want a better performing older iPad, try all on my tips in this link below.

Tap on the link below to my iDevice/iOS performance/optimisation user tips link

Slow iPad on iOS 9, 10 or 11! - Apple Community

Try all of these tips and leave each tip active together. Do not simply try every tip individually, expecting just one tip to be a performance “cure all”.

Many of these tips are designed to work together to help improve overall iOS/iDevice performance.

I still use my 8-year old iPad 2 everyday and it is still receiving regular app updates, albeit, fewer of them as time has passed.

For an 8-year old device, it is still working reasonably smooth and performance is better than average for this device with uneccessary items toggled OFF or disabled.

I would STOP using that 3-year old Safari Web browser, as it is, probably, not safe and secure to use any longer, and seek out a third party web browser that is STILL currently being updated and STILL being supported on iOS 9.3.5.

Here are a few third party web browsers that I know are STILL being updated and supported on iOS 9.

Popular third party, iOS 9 and earlier compatible Web browsers are more quickly dwindling, now.

Older iOS devices and users had about a dozen popular and regularly updated, well known and secure, third party Web browsers to choose from at one time.

We are down to seven, now.

Here’s what’s left.

iCab Mobile Web browser

Dolphin Web browser

Dolphin Incognito Web browser

Aloha Web browser

Snow Bunny Web browser

Private Browsing Web browser

Maxthon Web browser

Possibly, changing Web browsers may help with your online banking issue by still being able to actually use the banking Website, instead of the app.

Good Luck to You!
