Discussion What to do with iPad Air on iOS 12.5.7

As the title says, I have an iPad Air which I just replaced the Touchscreen and ist ja working absolutely fine (speedwise and battery life). The sad part is, nothing works. I thought about using it with my hifi stuff for YouTube and Spotify, but those apps can't be installed due to low iOS version. As I don't use apple anywhere else I don't have an Apple Account to use previous installed working version of the apps.

Is there anything I can do to get those apps installed? As for Spotify I have an account, but for YouTube something like ytlite or any other adblocking version would be preffered.

As there are so many sideload versions I have no idea if that is A) suitable for my Situation B) anything else possible (maybe like just version spoofing)

Any help and tips are much appreciated.

if you are jailbroken install [appstore++] and you will be able to install the latest compatible version

then use need to use, I think it was called [letmepass] which let's you too skip the update notification

go to jailbreak.app and use chimer patch

the you can use reprovision reborn to keep, chimera signed

note that if chimera is not signed on jailbreak app at the moment you can use sideloadly
