Ipad iOS update - Now Sky Safari doesn't work!

[lukebl]

My wretched iPad just updated itself to iPadOS 14.6, and now says 'SkySafari Pro Needs to be updated. The developer of this app needs to update it to work with this version of iOS'.

Has anyone else had this problem, and can I re-install an earlier iOS?

How dare Apple do this to my most expensive app and leave me in the lurch! 🤬🤬🤬

That is worrying. I guess that my iPad hasn’t updated yet…..

Weird. Which version of iOS has it updated to?

My ipad is on 14.6 (18F72) and Skysafari 6 Pro seems fine.... I've just launched it and used a few functions and all seem well..... does any function in particular cause the message to pop up?

Just clicking on the icon make the message come up, and the app doesn’t run. All very frustrating.

Frustrating for you.
All seems well for me on that version... maybe some small comfort that there must be a solution?
I presume you've checked the Safari app for any updates?... I seem to remember there was one pushed out to me a few days ago...to 6.8.5.2

14.6 the same as yours did.

Try deleting it then reloading it.

You can always also turn off auto updates.

Works fine on my iPad with the ios14.6 update.

I had it with different apps before and you just have to update it…

I think his version is really old so it wasn’t compatible with the new iOS update.

That is what I was thinking as well.

Weird. In despair, I restored my iPad from a backup 6 months ago to see if that might work. Still no luck. Didn’t dare deleting the app in case I had to buy it all over again. I left it overnight and miraculously SkySafari Pro has suddenly started working again. 

I guess I’ll never know what that was all about. 

Anyway, thanks for all the helpful replies.
