I’ve been looking at the amount of devices piling up in the house over the years e.g old phones from contracts, iPads, iPods, laptops. I’ve managed to repurpose everything except my iPad. It’s too old to do anything. Does anyone have any ideas as to what I could do with it? Is it possible to install a different OS? I’ve looked at a few options but they aren’t for me:
1) use it as a photo frame - not really into that
2) use it as a monitor- it’s too old for that
3) use it as a smart home control hub/unit/dashboard- the OS is outdated so the smart apps won’t install

Safari still works for YouTube etc. It’s painfully slow but not that much worse than than an Amazon Fire or similar.
There have been some good trade in deals for old tablets from some retailers (Currys, Samsung etc) if you’re looking for something new, (edited)
