1. If it requires you to enter a code from another device on an older iPad, it tells you to enter your password + MFA code in the password field.

2. You can manually go in and download “the last compatible version”

3. Netflix is usually good about supporting old devices. Amazon disabled an older auth protocol. Apple TV+ videos can be accessed via the web (tv.apple.com). While Safari seems to always redirect you to the app, Chrome for iOS doesn’t.

1.) The iPad 2 only accepts four digit codes, but Apple is now using more digits.

2.) This doesn't work when the app has been removed from the app store.

As an aside, I threw away my 1st gen Apple TV over a year ago because Apple bricked it. It needed MFA to sign in (because it timed out?) and only accepted four digits.
