    Not true. A lot of ioa devices can’t be updated so you can’t get the updated app even if it existed at one point.

    Example you have an ipad mini running iOS 12. There were a lot of apps compatible with that version back then but they get pulled from the store so people are artificially fucked and need to buy a new device.

    It’s not the same.

        No they have no control why a devices gets locked to a lower software version. Apple decides that.
