For example, I am running a first generation iPad with iOS 5.1.1 (the most recent version it will ever have) and I just noticed today that the application Shazam has just dropped support for iOS 5 on the latest version of their app. Seeing that this is probably going to be a first of many apps, is there a way to hide updates that can't be installed on your current version of iOS, so that only updates that can be install will be displayed in the list of updates in the App Store.

This could get kind of messy in the App Store update list with future shuffled mess of things that I can and can't upgrade or even worse a complete list of stuff that I can't upgrade too. Are there any work around or fixes to hide that impending mess.

Shazam an iOS app you can't install on iOS 5

This is kind of silly, apple is not showing me a upgrade to iOS6 button that is grayed out in software update "Settings", why show me stuff in the App Store that I can't upgrade too. I am surprised I am not seeing a "Buy new iDevice" button linking to the Apple Store. – MrDaniel Dec 23 '12 at 14:57
That would be hilarious. Unfortunately, I don't believe there is a real answer to what you're looking for. – Andrew Larsson Dec 28 '12 at 18:18
