Quick heads up on the problem: just saw this in the 0.117 announcement
We improved compatibility and Home Assistant is now usable on more, mostly older, devices.
I just updated and tried on my old iPad, and it works: Version 0.117 brings the iPad 3 compatbility back!
Many thanks to the HA team!

@nagubal thank you so much for posting this! I have RPI3b with latest HassOS that I’m playing with and I just tested it on my iPad 2 — worked flawlessly. Thank you HA Team, awesome job!

@nagubal works better but not perfect - button card installed via HACS is not showing on the iPad 3 and saying Custom element doesn’t exist 
At least its connect which is a great start.

Hello, I have found a solution for this problem.
I have an iPhone 4S with IOS 9.3.6.
To reinstall it you need to get a device compatible with the current update and download on this device (iphone / ipad under ios 13 at least). You must invite in your family the non compatible device in question.
All you have to do is go to your old device in the family section and find the home assistant app and download it.
I hope it will work even for future updates.
French greetings.

That is a great idea, I will try it!
it work for me
I can indeed download a Home Assistant app on the old iPad.
Great workaround, however custom cards do not work
Same with me for custom cards. So glad it’s back and working to some level.
How can I default HA home page on a specific device ? I’m going to need to create a page with no custom cards 
Also,
- some entities just don’t display, do people have this on a standard entity card?
- some badges aren’t displaying, i tried reordering but same as entity card… only some work
Mine won’t login. iPad 2 with 9.3.5, tells me wrong username/password every time when I can login just fine on my phone. Anybody has this working for them?
Hi, I downloaded Home Assistant app to my parents Ipad 2 like in you’r post - but the app keeps crashing when I try to open it. Anybody alse with this problem?

Any solution to use HA in IOS 9.3.5?
Same here. I was able to install it through the family sharing, but now it’s always saying there is an error with the password. Did you find a solution?
