Let's not split hairs over this.
I just got rid of my iPad that does. You tap "get" on the app and after doing something for 5-10 seconds it pops up a modal that says it's not compatible.
Why was the app store showing apps to me that are not compatible or, rather, why was there no way to filter out the ones that are not compatible?

- lostlogin 5y agoI’m not sure what I want with this - on MacOS it’s goddamn infuriating trying to download an OS that you want to install on a machine that isn’t the one you are browsing from. You can’t just use the App Store and end up doing all sorts of horrible things. I’ve commented on this before and had people send me links that show you can do it in the US App Store, but I can’t from NZ.
- dqv 5y agoOh are you talking about how you how certain things are hidden from search in the macOS app store? I found that annoying too. I had an old machine that I wanted to upgrade to Catalina and searching through the app store gave no results. Some how I found this link[0] and it magically brings me to macOS Catalina in the app store. Why didn't it come up in the search?
