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?

I shall use the situation to demonstrate to my household Financial Controller that a new tablet is required.  Which would you recommend between an iPad Air or a Samsung S8 Plus?

There's a thread on the PilotAware forum where some people have had problems with unstable connections between device/SD and PAW  after upgrading their Samsung device to another with Android 15.

If you are a PAW user, it may be worth looking more into this if you are considering a Samsung.
