Your iPad Air cannot update past iOS 12.5.5

You need to buy a newer iPad model to update to a newer iOS version.


Connecting a Bluetooth accessory to your iPad requires iPadOS 13.4 or later. These iPad models support iPadOS 13 and later:

  • iPad Pro (all models)
  • iPad Air 2 or later 
  • iPad (5th generation) or later
  • iPad mini 4 or later
