iPadOS 18 hasn’t given us all the features we’d like to have the software finally catch up with the hardware, but it’s still a very welcome update.
The bad news, of course, is that each major update means dropping support for some older iPads, and this year is no exception …
Apple has announced that the following iPad models are compatible with iPadOS 18:
- iPad: 7th-gen and later (2019)
- iPad mini: 5th-gen and later (2019)
- iPad Air: 3rd-gen and later (2019)
- iPad Pro: 1st-gen 11-inch and later (2018), 3rd-gen 12.9-inch and later (2018)
How to identify your iPad model and iPadOS version
If you’re unsure of the exact model and generation of your iPad, it’s easy to check:
Settings > General > About
and check the model name and generation.
To check which version of iPadOS you are currently running:
Settings > Software Update
and check your current version. If an update is available, your iPad will show it here.
