User level: Level 1 (4 points)I have an older iPad Air 2 with iOS 15. Is there a list of compatible apps I can download? I’ve searched online and every thing I’ve tried isn’t compatible, thanks!

I don't think there is a list, you just have to keep on browsing. Even if there was a list I bet it would change almost daily.
Typically once an iOS/iPadOS version is 3 behind the current version you'll see support dropping off. The recent order is iOS 27, 26, then 18. I know with iOS 16 I am finding this and it will just get worse. You're 3 versions below 18 so it does not surprise me at all that you're finding it hard to get compatible apps.

"The only thing about screenshots back in the day is that isn't showing which iOS 15 friendly apps are available now, which is what the OP wants, I believe. :-)"

I agree. There's no list out there, that is of Apple's --but that that's back in the day.

Maybe the Internet Archive (archive.org) has something (screenshots from back in the day) to go by. That's the best that comes to mind. See this Search Query from DuckDuckGo: ipad air 2 app list site:archive.org
