iPad 2 Wi-Fi + Cellular not updating to iOS 9.3.6

There's no iOS 9.3.6 update appearing to my iPad 2 Wi-Fi + Cellular (GSM). Is this update only available to the CDMA version of the iPad 2?

iPad 2 3G

If you don't see the update on your iPad, connect it to your computer and do the update using iTunes.


As long as you do have a Cellular iPad 2 it should accept 9.3.6. CDMA or GSM should not be a factor as this is an update to correct a GPS issue.

Thanks Phil. I've been researching this since I posted and realized after it was too late to amend my post that there was only the iPad 2 Wifi + 3G, which is of course cellular and yes, I know there was no LTE back in those days.


I realize the OP called Apple, but I wouldn't take what the person they spoke with said as Gospel.


I had to speak with an Apple Advisor when iOS 12.4 was released and the advisor argued with me that I had to be using beta software because it couldn't have been released to the public yet. Which of course I had to explain had indeed been released and they still insisted on involving a senior advisor because I had to be wrong.
