Please help how to update ios 13?ipad cant download some apps because of ios
iPad mini, iOS 12
Unfortunately, the iPad mini 2 is not compatible with iOS/iPadOS 13. You would need at least the iPad mini 4 to install that version: iOS 13 and iPadOS are compatible with these devices - Apple Support

A first generation iPad Air, iPad mini2 and mini3 can only be updated to iOS 12.5.3.
Apple ended major update support for these models of iPad in September 2019 - although they since continue to received “point” security updates. These devices cannot be updated to iPadOS 13 (or any later major versions of iPadOS) as the internal hardware does not meet the minimum technical requirements (CPU and RAM) for newer versions of iOS/iPadOS.
Some App developers have 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, 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 iPadOS14.
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 existing iPad.
IOS update for ipad mini 2
