Yeah 

Sim;y the iPad isn't up to date with what it can play.

 The fifth gen only came out within the passed 6 months.

Subject: More on Swift Playgrounds

Hi all,

so after much effort, I've gotten my husband's iPad updated.  The iPad is a 4th 
gen.  But when I try to download Swift Playgrounds, I get an error message that 
it is not compatible with my device.  That doesn't seem possible, given that 
the 5th gens aren't out yet.  Anyone have any ideas what the problem might be?
TIA,
Donna

Yeah, I saw that.  It's my husband's and he doesn't care, so not my problem. :)

You also won't be able to run iOS 11 on that iPad either.

Hi,

For whatever reason, Apple did not make Swift Playground compatible with the 
current iPad line.  Only the iPad Air, the iPad Mini 2 and up along with the 
iPad Pro models.  There's usually some underlying rationale to do with the 
processor, the graphics capabilities or sometimes just because that's what 
they've decided.  In any case, it appears that your out of luck with that model 
of iPad.

Sorry.
