7 creative ways to repurpose an old tablet instead of recycling it

Apple released my iPad Pro in 2015. The thing has 32GB of storage—which seemed like a lot back then. Somehow, it still gets used almost daily around my house. The same goes for the old Kindle Fire tablets floating around my house—they're slow by modern standards, sure, but slow doesn't mean useless. That aging tablet in your drawer has more practical life left than you'd think, and tossing it only adds to the growing pile of e-waste nobody wants to deal with. I've found several everyday jobs that my outdated hardware handles perfectly, saving me from buying dedicated devices while keeping functional tech out of landfills.
