Why is it impossible to use this software on iPads younger than iPad Air

Why is it impossible to use this software on iPads younger than iPad Air

Chosen solution

Hi,

Safari Content Blockers (which include Focus) are only available on devices with an A7 processor (64-bit) or later. Only 64-bit processors an handle the extra load of content blocking, which insures optimal performance. Since the iPad 3 has an A5 processor, Focus is incompatible.

Compatible devices include: iPad Air (or later), iPad Mini 2 (or later), iPod Touch 6th Generation, and iPhone 5s (or later).
