I'm looking for the older apps for my gen3 iPad. This is my first iPad that I could get and would like to have the LDS apps to use.

The latest Gospel Library 5.0 won't run on your iPad, but if you go to the iOS App Store and download Gospel Library, it will allow you to download the most recent version that supported your device (Gospel Library 4.4, since your device runs iOS 9). Hope this helps!

I did try and just said not supported gave me no choices but will try again will let you know.

I tried again and it will not let me download... just wants me to update to 10.0 thank you for trying.

Is your iPad running iOS 9.3.5? I have an iPad on iOS 9.3.5, and when I tap the download button from the App Store, it has a message that says "Download old version of app? — The current version requires iOS 10.0 or later, but you can download the last compatible version. — Cancel — Download." Then I click Download, and it downloads as expected.

Yes, I am running ios9.3.5. and I didn't get the message like your pic...

I am wondering the same thing? Mine also only wants me to update and will not allow me to choose an older version. I have looked everywhere and cannot figure out how to get that option.....does my iPad have to be set to a certain setting in order to be able to download older app versions?

It is my understanding that the Apple store only allows one version of an app and does not allow earlier versions.
[Edit: This is not the case. Please see the following post for the good news.]

The App Store will provide the latest compatible version for your device. If your device runs iOS 9, it will provide Gospel Library 4.4.0. If your device runs iOS 10, 11, or 12, only Gospel Library 5 will be available. Make sure your device is updated to the latest version of iOS, then you can download the latest version of Gospel Library that is compatible with your device.

I was just on the app store and it gave me the error: "This application requires iOS 10 .00 or later. You must update to iOS 10 .00 in order to download and use this application" It did not give me any option to download an older compatible version. PLEASE help!

From what I'm seeing here, even if you did load the older version, it wouldn't work.

I have lost access to Gospel Library with the latest update.. I have an iPad 2 running on iOS 9.35. I tried deleting and reloading Gospel Library, older version, but it immediately starts updating and is not able to complete before aborting.

Is this a problem with others? Is there a fix coming out? Or do I need to just buy a new iPad. Mine works well with other Apps.

If it says "You must update to iOS 10.0 in order to download and use this application" instead of giving you the option to download an older version, it probably means that your device supports iOS 10 and can be updated. You can look for updates under iOS Settings > General.

From what I can work out, Gospel Library from version 4.4.0 onwards, will only work with iOS 10.00 onwards. So there won’t be any fixes for older iPads!

I have a first-generation iPad mini, on iOS 9, and was able to install Gospel Library 4.4.0 from the iOS App Store. I was able to launch the app without any trouble. Do you have enough free space on your device?

I could not get the April conference to load on my iPad, so I d legend the app and tried reinstalling, knowing all my annotations are saved on my iPhone. Now the App Store says gospel library is incompatible with my iPad running iOS 9.3.5. What can I do since this is my main scripture study platform? Thanks

Try going to the "Purchased" tab of the App Store, and tapping the download icon next to Gospel Library there – does that let you download it? It should let you download Gospel Library 4.4.0. After installing Gospel Library 4.4.0, you may need to force close and reopen the app to get the latest catalog, before it will let you download books.

I am running IOS 9.3.5 on my iPad mini and it says unable to Purchase, when I try to download Gospel Library from the App Store. Help! Is there a place I can download the older version of Gospel Library?

Have you installed Gospel Library before, on any device using your Apple ID? If so, it should be available as a previous "purchase" under the Purchased tab (using the tabs at the bottom of the screen). Is that where you got the "unable to purchase" message?

If you've installed Gospel Library before, on any device using your Apple ID, you can find Gospel Library as a previous "purchase" under the Purchased tab in the App Store. From there, you can install the latest version of the app that's compatible with your device.

I am having the same problem with downloading gospel library on an older pad with 9.3.5. I do not get the download earlier version option. Do you know what steps I need to follow to get that option to come up on the App Store?

My Ipad has 9.3.5 update--anything later is not compatible. When I try to download the only one that I can find is the most recent. How do you get the A store to download the latest that is compatible?

I was able to download the older version by going to "Purchased" and downloading there! Yeah! Apparently after April 2019 you can't get the updates on Ensign and New Era?

Note that even if you were able to get it installed, it wouldn't have the April 2019 conference - or any future conferences. And at some point, you wouldn't even be able to download the standard works should they be lost from your device. (I'm not sure what the schedule is for maintaining the servers that serve the old versions. They might already be shut down.)

It is not possible to uptdate more than the 9.3.5 version of IOS. My IPAD says that the lastest version of Gospel Library is not compatible.
