Hi, Xei,

Unfortunately, my old copies of Instagram are tied to my App Store account and wouldn’t open on your device even though it’s a free app. Also, old versions of the app are not allowed to even sign in to the Instagram network. The don’t even make it past the splash screen. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

Interesting. I’m going by what Wikipedia said for that one. I skipped over the iPhone 3G and 3GS. According to WP, the last iOS supported for the 3G is 4.2.1. They also say that the 3GS still supports iOS 6.

Well it’s odd that you say that about the iPhone 3G because I have the latest iOS update… Which is iOS 6 I believe…

So, is there ANY instant messaging option for a iphone 2g using iOS 3.1.3?

I tried all what I saw in itunes and everyhing seems to need later versions of the OS.

I really hate this obsolescency. It is MEAN. I cant see why cant they make it compatible with older versions. My Iphone WORKS PERFECTLY and I dont need a new one!

Any ideas?

Apple should make it so that itunes automatically recognizes which app you need based on the phone OS, and then allow you access to the last developed version of the app. Especially since they were still selling new 3G's only 2 years ago, and now those people are just over a barrel. It's not right.

I don't understand why there aren't alternatives for people with older iPhones.
