I have iPad 3rd generation, IOS 9.3.5. I want to upgrade to IOS 10. How?

You can’t.

An iPad 3 can’t have its iOS upgraded beyond iOS 9.3.5.

It's hardware is too old and underpowered to support newer versions of iOS.

If you need to upgrade because of some apps that have moved on to iOS 10 and later,

Tap on my link below and pick one of the three solutions that best fits your situation.

CAREFULLY read and follow ALL instructions.

Downloading Older iOS 9.3.5 Versions of Apps ONLY Available Now for iOS 10 or Later

Also, strongly heed my advice in the above link about switching to a more current, secure, up to date Web browser for iOS 9.3.5.

Good Luck to You!

An iPad 3 can’t be updated past 9.3.5.
