If you're working on an outdated device that no longer supports current versions of the eBay app, you should be able to access eBay through a web browser on your device.

 

Below instructions help to access older versions of the app, but if you have an iPhone 5 (wow that's ancient in tech years - dating back to 2012) then you can't update past iOS 10 (which hasn't been updated since 2019) and I don't know if you'll be able to access the app. You may even struggle accessing eBay and other sites through the web browser.

 

 

---------------------------
If you're on iOS 15 you should still be able to get a version of the app that will run on your device. Follow these instructions from eBay:

  1. Delete your eBay app.
  2. Go to the App Store, search for eBay.
  3. When you download it you will see this alert, tapping download should allow you to get a version that will run on your device.
