I have iPad with iOS 10.3.3 ,I can't download certain apps from store because they ask for newer versions like 12. Is there a way to upgrade iPad to that.
iPad, iOS 10
Sorry, not possible.
Update support for iPad4 ended September 2017. The final iOS releases for this model were iOS 10.3.3 (WiFi Only models) and iOS 10.3.4 (WiFi & Cellular). iPad4 cannot be updated to any later major version of iOS as it lacks the minimum hardware requirements needed to run more recent versions. The 32-bit platform upon which the iPad4 is based is effectively obsolete.
Many App Developers have also dropped support for older devices and iOS versions preceding iOS11/12/13 - and have withdrawn older versions of their Apps from the Apple App Store. Withdrawal of Apps supporting older models of iPad is making their utility and usefulness significantly more limited. Once compatible versions Apps are withdrawn, you’ll not be able (re)download or (re)install them.
If Apps that you need to use now have higher minimum iOS-version requirements, your only option is to replace your iPad with newer model. Even the basic current iPad8 supports current iPadOS 14 - and has hardware specifications and capabilities that vastly outperform your old iPad4.
I hope this information is helpful - if only in clearly stating the limitations of your iPad4 and your available options.

If you're using an iPad 4, no. Otherwise, update it from a computer or the Software Update function in Settings.
