My two beloved but elderly iPads are refusing to upgrade SD from version 3.16.9 to 3.16.10.  They are running iOS 9.3.5 (yeah, I know!).  Close inspection of the requirements list reveals that SD now requires iOS 10 as a minimum.  Out of interest I'd love to know which new feature forced this change?

More importantly, how long will my 3.16.9 continue to operate before it struggles with the aeronautical and map data downloads?

Our build tools no longer even allow us to target iOS 9 with new version updates, sorry. It's out of our hands.

It's impossible to answer your last question. We take backwards compatibility seriously and tend to support old versions way longer than most companies do, but there will always come a time when doing so becomes more expense than it's worth. It's normally a "many years" timeframe though.
