Using Spotify Connect with older Spotify iOS versions (compatible with iOS 5.1.1)

[fearofbirds]

I've got an old iPad 1st generation, which can't get iOS later than 5.1.1. This means it can't get a recent version of Spotify (let alone the current version). This means it doesn't seem to have the Spotify Connect feature, as that probably wasn't introduced in this version. 

I just want to control Spotify on the iPad 1st gen from my iPhone (running iOS 10). Anyone know how this could be possible?

Hey @fearofbirds,

Unfortunately, I don't think that's possible because Spotify Connect was not implemented in the last version of Spotify available for the first iPad generation and the device isn't supported by Spotify anymore: https://support.spotify.com/article/spotify-system-requirements/

Hope this helps!

Thanks for letting me know. I feel like there must be a workaround, but i'm not sure what it is.
