@Tourma@tech.lgbtHey, #Apple people!
I'm a librarian and as the "techy" person, they send all the tech help questions to me. Windows and Android I'm fine with, MacOS I'm okay, (I had a Macbook Pro circa 2007) but the last iOS device I've owned is a 1st gen iPod Touch (also 2007)
I'd like to get my own device to try and learn iOS to help patrons. I don't have the money to buy a new iAnything new. I'm looking on ebay, but the real cheap ones are iOS 9.
How far off is iOS 9 to the modern experience? Is iOS 10 any better? Beyond that it goes above my $50 limit.
Thanks!
@Tourma That's a really outdated version of the operating system from around 2015. We're currently at iPadOS 16 with 17 due to arrive in two months. A LOT has changed in the 6 versions since 9 and 10.

That's kind of what I figured. There's a reason the device is $25.
Libby won't even run on it unless there's some way to root it and install old apps too.
C'est la vie.
Thanks.
