Dear Techie,
I was recently asked what Operating System I was using, and didn't know the answer. I have a Dell notebook with Microsoft and I think it has Windows on it. What exactly is the operating system? Why are there so many names?
Sincerely,

Posted by Chris Allard on Thu, Jun 02, 2016

You will get an error saying "This app requires iOS version 8.xx or later" or something similar.
Don't give up until you've tried this quick and easy workaround.
