I avoid apps if at all possible. If I have one that I use and it works, I avoid upgrading it. The upgrade is often full of ads and sometimes I have upgraded to find it says it won;t work on my version of android and there is never a way to go back.

I had a look regarding the original posters tablet and it looks like no android upgrade was ever offered.

There is always LineageOS or similar if you have a reasonably popular device but that requires quite a lot of expertise and there may be no way back.
