Apple now has released a total of 37 different iPads, and it's getting harder to keep them straight. So this user tip is aimed at maintaining a list divided by sub line, that includes screen size, CPU, release year, charge port type, Apple Pencil model it is compatible with if any, discontinuation date and iOS / iPad OS versions they can run now.

That iPad model cannot ever upgrade beyond iOS 9.3.5/9.3.6. Sorry. Apple ended support for all 8-10-year old iOS devices nearly 5 years, ago, in 2016.
The iPad mini4 and Air2 are capable of update to iPadOS 15.7.8; these models do not support iPadOS16.x. Whether or not you are able to update any iPad to a newer version of iOS/iPadOS will be dictated by the iPad model - and the currently installed version of iOS.
I have an iPad mini 2 and it currently runs iOS 12.4.3. I want it to run iOS 13 because I need an app for school that only runs on iOS 13 or later, but when I try to update, even plugged into a desktop Mac, it says that I’m running the current version of the software and I can’t update it.
It is what it is. The 2013 iPad Air 1 ( “A” model number A1474/1475/1476 ), iPad Mini 2 ( “ A” model number A1489/1490/1491 ) and the 2014 iPad Mini 3 ( “A” model number A1599/1600/1601 ) cannot upgrade beyond any version of iOS 12, currently at iOS 12.5.5.

These old iPad 2, 3, 4 and 1st gen iPad Mini models are nearing 8 and 9-years old, now. As of the beginning of 2019, many, MANY third party app developers are all more quickly and completely dropping older app support for all old 7, 8 and 9-year iPads that are running 2-3 year old and earlier iOS versions ( iOS 10 and earlier ).
