    My first iPad is a 3rd gen and I still have it. I'd guess 99% of Apple store apps are not compatible with it. Even the Apple apps that came with it are outdated. Safari won't even load Apple's own website properly. One app that does work is the old Apple video app which I occasionally use to watch my Apple TV library content. The only reason I still have my gen 3 is because nothing is wrong with it and I hate trashing something that works...even though it can't be used for much.

    Купил этот iPad 3 б/у на Авито в 2013. До сих пор пользуюсь им. Жаль, функционала у него сегодня немного из-за ограничений в поддержке софта. Экран у него даже сегодня огонь, заряд держит хорошо, батарею никогда не менял )

    Idk, I ordered one a few hours ago for 10 bucks. Initially I was just looking for a display module, but now I'm kinda thinking of restoring it (the glass is broken). As long as it can read PDFs and write text files I'm fine with however old it is... if I can also run a terminal/ssh client it would be fantastic. Can't really worry about going on the internet, as all of my network-capable outdated devices sit nice and tightly on a vlan with no internet access.

    Apple has certainly amplified the global ewaste problem. It’s appalling that devices like this can’t be used because Apple doesn’t let them be repurposed with other software. They should be forced to allow open source software when it can’t run the latest iOS anymore.

      Your description appears to be your iPad 3 drained the battery completely.
      As battery completely drained, it never charge again.
      The only way to fix it is to change a battery. The question is if it worth the price or work.

    Hello! Started to watch this video but since it's more than 8 min long I'm asking here instead.. I have an Ipad 3 A1416 which I took out of a box today. My questions are, can I use it to surf the net with? Can I use Facebook and Facebook Messenger? And can I use Instagram on it? I tried, but since it asks for updates and I tried using it with some updates I can't get it to work.... 😢 How do I make it work for those things?

    I just took it out of the box. in 2024.
    With the idea that my mother can watch some series and enter 4 applications that had always worked, banks, news, etc. It is a shame and an insult that a device, about 10 years old; mine is 4G and 64Gb.
    It is not even worth that, currently it is a paperweight or a photo frame.
    My PC still runs games and editing applications with a processor from 2011.
