IOS – How to download Remote.app on an iOS 6 only device

applicationsiosios-appstoreitunes

When I try to download Remote.app or Find my friends on a device that is stuck on iOS 6 I am presented with this alert?

This application requires iOS 7.0 or later.

You must update to iOS 7.0 in order to download and use this
application.

Is there anyway around this if I've previously downloaded these applications on my device but deleted them?

Did you backup your phone to your computer? If so, you probably have the old version of the app in the Mobile Applications folder inside your iTunes folder. If you only backed up to iCloud I think you may be out of luck.
