My son has using my old iPad for Kids Messenger for almost a year but it looks like it won’t support the new Messenger app that dropped yesterday so it’s basically useless now.
is there anything that we can do?
iPad, iOS 10
Not really
An 2012, iPad 4th gen will be 9-years old by this Sept. 2021.
All support for this iPad ended 2-3 years, ago.
It's 2021 now!
Time to seriously consider a purchase of a new iPad model OR a much, MUCH “newer” and less expensive, refurbished or used iPad models, from better known, trusted Apple product/device retailers/resellers, locally or online, on the Web/Internet, capable of running the latest iPadOS versions.
There are PLENTY of newer, older iPad models that can run the latest, current versions of iPadOS.
I am sorry that you had to learn this, but this does not change any of the facts regarding these very old iOS devices.
Sorry & Best of Luck to You!
