You may have been provided a reason when you tried to. What did it say? Likely it said you need a newer iOS version. The iPad mini3 will only update to iOS 12.5.7 and I believe those apps all need iOS 13 or higher.


There are different ways to ensure the highest iOS/iPadOS that your device will support is installed on your device.


This support article has instructions about updating an iPhone or iPad wirelessly --> Update your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


You can also use Mac and PC computers to update system software, as outlined in this support article --> Update iPadOS - Apple Support


Use this support article to identify your iPad model --> Identify your iPad model - Apple Support and then the list below to find out what your iPad is capable of running. Alternatively --and somewhat easier-- is to simply try updating it and see if it will update. When updating, your device will update to the highest version currently available that it will support, or it will just say it is up to date (and can't go any higher) and won't install anything. If you want to run a higher system version than your current device will run, that you need to buy a newer device.
