   That 6 year old iPAd is running iOS 18 released in 2024. So the OS is   
   only 2 years old, not 8. You apparently did not know that Apple has   
   changed the iOS numbering system.   
      
   I'll be able to keep that device secure for a few more years to come.   
   The billion Android devices are shut off from feature and security updates.
