Help I need to download Netflix on an ipad2 with iOS 9.5.3

I just got a hand me down ipad2 that has been reset. When I go to iTunes to download netflix it says it can't because I need iOS 11 or higher. Well as we all know the iPad 2 does not go passed 9.5.3. What can I do to get Netflix? When I go to the Netflix site it wants to download the app (in the App Store) so I have the same problem. So is this ipad2 just an expensive paperweight?

iPad 2 Wi-Fi, iOS 9.3.5, null

If you got it for free, than it isn’t an expensive paperweight. However, you are going to be very limited in the apps that you can download now. It is a very old device by today’s standards.


If you have purchased/downloaded Netflix in the past, this might work.
