    I have an original IPad 1. It has iOS 5.1.1 . All I want to do is install iBooks, but it tells me I need IOS 8 or above. Is there anyway I can do this?

    Although I am not a fan of jail breaking, it seems some people have had success with iBooks on 5.1.1 after a jailbreak and a sideload.

    I can tell you which jailbreak as I’m not up to date on legacy jailbreaks, but there’s info out there.

    There's no iBooks anymore. The app is called "Apple Books". But it requires iOS 10 as a minimum. You will need a device that supports that.

    Thanks. I thought maybe I was missing an app.
