I have an iPad Air 3rd generation with an A12 processor and 3GB of RAM from 2019. It runs iOS 26 fine. But it ain’t a great experience. If anything they should have added all of the capabilities they have now shortly after they started putting M series chips in them.
The issue with non micro transaction games is that mobile users are cheap. Every time that a company tries to release a non slimy app with a one time purchase price of even $10, no one buys them.
- bigyabai 1y agoThe issue is that the iPad doesn't run Proton. I own several mobile devices that run non-microtransaction games that are very successful on their respective stores. The failure of mobile games on iOS feels less like the user's fault and more like Apple deliberately promoting exploitative products because they're artificially segregated from healthy software competition.

And you owning devices that run Protonnis a minor anecdote that goes against worldwide market trends. And what is your definition of “successful” as far as revenue compared to the App Store or even the much less successful Play Store?
