Where do I download iOS software 13.4 for iPad mini 2?
I don’t see it available on apple website.
I want to to download iMovie on my iPad and I need iOS software 13.4 or later version to do so. I currently have software 12.4.8 and my software reads it is up to date.
Appreciate any assistances.
Blessed regards,

Hello Jcaprari,

It does not look like the iPad mini 2 is supported, meaning you won't be able to upgrade.
Hope this helps!

Sorry, you don’t.
Firstly, iPadOS 13.6 is current 13.4 is no longer signed for download.
Your iPad mini can only be updated to iOS 12.4.8.
Apple ended update support for iPad mini2 and mini3 in September 2019. They cannot be updated to iPadOS 13 (or any later major versions of iPadOS) as the internal hardware does not meet the minimum technical requirements for new versions of iOS/iPadOS (specifically, they have inadequate RAM - 1GB - whereas the minimum supported RAM configuration for iPadOS is 2GB).
Some App developers have also dropped support for iOS versions preceding iOS 13.x for technical reasons (often because APIs or software libraries upon which they rely have been updated in the new version of iPadOS, making their App incompatible with earlier versions).
Whilst many App titles remain compatible with your iPad mini, if you want or need to access to Apps requiring the most recent versions of iOS, you’ll need to consider replacement of your iPad with a newer or current model that supports iPadOS13.x.
Sorry, I appreciate that this may not be what you were hoping to learn.
I hope this information provides helpful clarity as to your available options - and the limitations of your current iPad mini.
Indeed, your information was more than adequate and incredibly helpful!
Not only did you answer my query but clarified the limitations of my iPad given the updated models since its inception.
I truly appreciate the valuable and comprehensive information you provided!
Do you have any high quality video editing app recommendations I could install on my iPad mini 2?
Thank you again!
IPad Mini 2 doesn't support iOS versions beyond 12.4.8, because of hardware incompatibility.
