The apps still work
 To JR's point, if he only owns iOS devices which are so old that
they no longer receive OS updates, then, sure, if the app works now, it
will work forever since it doesn't require anything in the new OS updates.
 I just hope he doesn't put that old iOS device on the Internet, that's all.
You just revealed your ignorance for all to see.
"if the app works now, it will work forever"
Not true. App updates that require specific OS "or newer" versions leave old app versions stranded absent OS updates. Case in point. An elderly relative with poor eyesight had an old iPad, maybe a gen 3, used for accessing audio books via Libby. It was not receiving Libby updates. At some point about 3 years ago the outdated Libby app refused to connect to public libraries. She bought a newer iPad. Problem solved.
That old iPad still worked. It was connected to the internet any time it was turned on. Nothing bad happened to the iPad itself. It was the outdated app that failed.
