They won't work at all once the API's the app relies on become fully depreciated and removed. This is a warning shot to developers. ( the warning alert, and the feedback from customers who rely on said apps)
It was fixed in beta 2. I was so relieved too. Pissed me off, but it works now, so whatever.
Did you read the article at all?
No... future versions of iOS will not allow 32-bit apps to function on modern devices.
I'm glad I kept my iPad 2. It will never be upgraded beyond 9.3.5, and will still run some of my favorite, "older" games and apps that will probably never be updated.
Oh yeah, it's totally in there and the author just didn't think to mention it.
I like the new "App Compatibility section. I would have liked to have seen it on the main Settings page right above the app list. Where it is now, is not readily apparent (at least to me).
Please stop with the 'feels snappier' rhetoric. It is old, not funny and at this point, obnoxious.

Haha, good catch! That's probably the case.I love the fact that whoever wrote the post is probably vegan
It is for local government/USPS. Retailers and other major business establishments are operating.
No, just sales in all the stores as for every holiday.
While this is Presidents Day some don't consider the current president should be part of it.
I've noticed this with every iOS device I've ever owned...and I've had iPhones and iPads since the originals! I wish I had the ability to look and comprehend the OS code. I feel like Apple must intentionally be doing things behind the scenes to make older generation devices slow down/get more erratic. If anyone could prove that, Apple would be in a crapton of trouble.

...and some apps can't be updated because the cost of porting to 64-bit (including dev & QA) is too costly. This is the case with several games from Slitherine (e.g., Battle Academy 1 & 2, Hell, Pike & Shot, and more).
There is ZERO technical reason that Apple has to cut off 32-bit app support. Even Windows still supports 32-bit software! This is nothing more than a ploy by Apple to get people to upgrade their hardware.
I want Apple to cut the nonsense and let their customers continue to use "old" applications.
They probably just dont optimize in older devices. Fact is a ton of folks didnt see any reason to upgrade from iPhone 6, so not optimizing forces people to upgrade to iPhone 8/7s.
I think it is a good thing.
It results in a overall better experience for the users. They are putting the responsibility on the developers, instead of attempting to maintain backwards compatibility when resources could better be put to use to advancing iOS.
It most cases, it really only takes a few hours MAX to rerelease the same app.
I guess I am pretty up to date, I only have one app on the list and it does not surprise me. The app still looks like its built for a 4s but its so basic and works I didn't see the need to replace it. I did send a message to the developer but I think it will be ignored and I will just have to delete the app.
