I can't get to the Trade Me website via iPad
A few days ago when I attempted to open Trade Me a message popped up saying that the new-look website isn't likely to work on this internet browser so we recommend upgrading your browser. I had four choices, update Firefox, Chrome or Edge. The fourth option was to go to the Trade Me site anyway. This I did on my iMac. But, when I attempt to access the website using my iPad that fourth option is missing. My browser is up to date, I have cleared the cache and I don't use VPN. Why is the fourth option missing preventing me from accessing Trade Me?

Indeed if your iPad is older you might not be able to run the latest version of safari, and therefore you will have problems with many modern websites, including Trade Me.
If you have ipad 1-4, air 1, or mini 1-3 you are likely going to be out of luck. You MIGHT be able to access Trade Me and other modern websites by installing a different browser and updating that.
If your iPad iOS is earlier than 16.4, you aren't going to be able to access TM on the App either I'm afraid.

Thank you for the feedback. It doesn't really explain why I can bypass the browser requirements on my iMac, but can't on my iPad. The message only said that the website MAY not run correctly and gave me the option to use the website anyway, but this option is missing when attempting to access the site with the iPad. I have had to download the app, luckily my iPad isn't THAT old!

You are possibly running different versions of safari on your imac and your ipad. That could explain why you see different responses.
