Good Luck to You!

There a way (not 100%), if you have a newer app for the newer iOS, you can download the same app on your iPad and if a compatible version is available, it will automatically download.

You cannot without having a newer version.

I have not purchased and used all of these, but did some research a while back for different third party stylus apps and just recently checked to see which ones are direct iOS 9 and earlier downloads and included all of the ones I still have on my iPad 2 that have gotten some recent updates and apps I know for fact that while now iOS 10/11 versions, now, still have older versions still available on Apple’s iOS App servers that can still be had for iOS 9 and even as far back as iOS 5.1.1.

I have about 2/3 of that list of apps on both my iPad 2 AND iPad Pro and about a 1/4 to a 1/3 of these on my 6th gen iPod Touch ( mostly the sketching type apps ).

Plenty of drawings apps that STILL may have older versions available from the app developers in the iOS App Store.

Tap on my link below and try one of the two precedures I have meticulously outlined.

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

That does not work with older iDevices running older iOS versions, any longer.

To get an older version of an app for an older iDevice running an older iOS version, YOU must use either of the methods I have outlined above in my above link.

Just follow the instructions In my link, please.

Per the link.

”If you have a newer iDevice, install the newer version of the app to your newer iDevice first.

Then, back on your iPad, you can try to download the latest app from the iOS App Store and if the developer/s has/have left an older, compatible version of their app/s on Apple's app servers, then you will receive a small window pop-up prompt that states that there is an older version of the app that is compatible with your device.. Would you like to download this version now.

Tap the OK button just below the prompt to start the downloading of the older app version to your iPad.”

If you do not own a newer iDevice running a newer iOS.

If you have a computer with an older version of iTunes (version 12.6.5 or earlier ), you can try downloading the most recent versions/s of app/s, by accessing the iOS App Store, through iTunes, logging into the iOS App Store using your Apple ID and password, and then, download the recent version of the app/s you like to use on your iPad, to iTunes on your computer, FIRST.

Then, follow the instructions given above.

Using either procedures will get you to installing an older version of an app/s ( if still available ) onto your older iDevice.

Follow either instructions for your particular circumstances.

I am not going to give you another long, detailed, explanation of why these two procedures work.

Just follow my detailed instructions and you will end up with older versions of drawing apps for your older iPad.

Some of the better drawings ARE still available and still are supported under iOS 9.3.5.

I will try and compile a list of all the ones I still have and still get updates under iOS 9.3.5.

In the meantime, find sketching/drawing/painting apps you are interested in and try and my procedures for getting the older versions for your older iPad.

Good Luck to You!
