iPad OS 16 foreseeable support

Hello, so I recently bought the app, and was thinking of getting an iPad to use on a treadmill. It would just be a glorified Anki device. And so I wanted to get something cheap but huge. Theres two things in my area thats around the same price in the second hand market. a 1st gen 12.9" iPad Pro. and a 10.5" iPad 8. The former only goes up to iPad OS 16, while the latter still receives updates.

In the app store I see that Anki supports iOS 15 and later. Would this change any time soon? Asking because I’m not sure how much of a pain itd be for the developers to still support older versions in the near future. I’d love the bigger screen but I’m afraid itd be for naught if I cant use Anki on it.

AnkiMobile releases typically support iOS versions released in the last ~3 years. Older AnkiMobile releases can continue to be used on older devices, though there may come a day when the old versions are no longer so useful (because they’re incompatible with recent desktop releases, changes in sync protocol, etc).
