Is there a way to use Microsoft Teams in my old iPad with IOS 9.3.5?

Hi,

I would like to use Teams in my iPad Mini with IOS 9.3.5.  Is there a way to do this?  Thanks.

    Hello there, I have had this same problem with my iPhone 5 but I have out on how to download it but one thing you would need is a different phone or device where you can download teams on to show it on your purchases
    1. Open App Store
    2. Click on updates
    3. Click on purchased
    4. Search "Teams" in the purchased catalogue
    5. Press the cloud with a down arrow
    6. You may see "The latest version support iOS 11 but you can download the last compatible version"
    7. Press ok on that prompt
    8. Wait for it to install
    9. When it's done downloading, open up the app and sign in with your school account
    10. Now your done! It may be a little laggy when you use it but this is due to your old devices performance but it does work fine. Mark this as a answer if this worked for you! 😁

      Marz6 I have the same problem. I have iPhone 10 in which I can install Microsoft teams, with the same account I logged in to my Ipad (9 ver), I can see the team in the Purchased section with a download arrow. When I clicked on it, it says, 'Microsoft teams is not completable.

       

      Can anyone suggest any workaround to use teams in my Ipad?

        You need to download it with a newer device, then it will have a cloud symbol and a down arrow icon on it, then download the older version.

    mmontejo I don't have a solution, but am happy to find a community of people with the same problem. I have an iPad mini and an iPad, both of which are "too old" to be supported by Microsoft Teams. I would obviously just use Zoom given the choice, but unfortunately my son's school is using Teams for online learning. For now, he is on a smartphone with a cracked screen until (a.) I can afford to buy a new tablet (b.) The school decides to use a platform that is more accessible to the range of tech access in our community (c.) Someone posts a workaround for this problem (d.) Microsoft decides to invest some time to add support for those of us on older technology-which I might add, still works fine!

     

    I have a feeling the school year will end with the cracked smartphone...

        mmontejo - IOS does not work for 9.3.5 version. IT requires minimum version 10. Could you please update your IOS version?
