Why does that matter? Even if it was released 20 years ago, why the hell should Apple (or any company for that matter) dictate if a developer can make an app for an old device or that a user wishes to use that app!? With Android, the developer doesn't need to depend on the "App Store", or even care about it, to distribute their app - any Android user can directly download and install the app through other means on their old or "outdated" device.
