You own an iPad 4 ( 4th generation ).
The iPad 4th generation is ineligible and excluded from upgrading to iOS 11 or iOS 12 and any future iOS versions.
With the introduction of iOS 11, ALL support for older 32-bit iDevice hardware and any iOS 32 bit apps has ended.
Your iPad 4 is an older, 32-bit hardware device.
With the introduction of the 64 bit coded iOS 11, and now iOS 12 and later, ALL newer iOS versions will ONLY support newer 64 bit hardware iDevices and 64 bit software, now.
The iPad 4 is incompatible with all of these new iOS versions, now.
No need to panic or worry though.
Your iPad 4th gen will still work and function as it always has, but will no longer receive any more app updates sometime in the foreseeable future.
The 4th gen iPad has had over 5 years of iOS upgrades/updates
The final app updates your 4th gen iPad will receive will be its last!
Your iPad 4 will survive and stay a viable, functioning iPad for a couple more years.
Currently, iPad 4 models are STILL receiving regular app updates, but look for this change over time.
This is why Apple introduced the new, lower cost 2018 and 2017 iPad 6th and 5th generation models.
Apple is trying to get older iPad 2, 3, 4 and 1st gen Mini iPad users to upgrade to more modern iPad hardware in anticipation of the recent releases of iOS 11, and now iOS 12, which will render all older 32 bit iDevices obsolete, in time.
My link for iOS 9 still works for iDevices running iOS 10 or 11 devices, as well.
If you need older versions of apps that have moved on to iOS 10 and later, tap on my link below and choose the method that best works with your current situation.
CAREFULLY read and follow ALL directions. Especially so for my computer/iTunes procedure.
All three of my procedures/solutions work!
Downloading Older iOS 9.3.5 Versions of A… - Apple Community
Apps may or may not have older iOS 9.3.5 versions still available from the iOS App Store.
The Netflix app has versions in the iOS App Store that go all the way back to iOS 5.1.1.
There are three ways to try/attempt to get an older version of an app. Pick the method that works best for your situation/circumstances.
Also, since the iPad 4 has not had any new iOS upgrades/updates in over a year, I would strongly consider you stop using that year old, default iOS Safari Web browser and seek out other more current and, up to date and more secure third party Web browsers, instead.
Here are a few, more popular, third party web browsers that I know are STILL being updated and supported on iOS 10 and earlier.
Firefox Web browser
Google Chrome browser
iCab Mobile Web browser
Dolphin Web browser
Dolphin Incognito Web browser
DuckDuckGo private Web browxer
Snow Bunny Web browser
Private Browsing Web browser
Aloha Web browser
Maxthon Web browser
Good Luck to You!
