If you have continued reliance upon your ageing iPad, you should perhaps consider replacement with a newer model. You also need to be aware that Apps supporting older versions of iOS are becoming increasing scarce - and may following potential withdrawal from the Apple Store (by Apple or the third-party Developer) cannot be downloaded.


Unfortunately, as Safari is an integral component of iOS, this cannot be upgraded either. As such, it is updated together with iOS.Īs you have an old (now unsupported) iPad running iOS 9.3.5/6, you’ll not be able to update to a newer version of iOS or iPadOS - as your iPad lacks the necessary CPU or RAM to support the newer versions of the Operating System.

You cannot singularly update Safari - as it is a “component” of iOS.
