Notes:
- The iPad 4th generation is ineligible and excluded from upgrading to iOS 11
- With the introduction of iOS 11, ALL support for older 32 bit iDevices and any iOS 32-bit apps has ended.
- Your iPad 4 is a 32-bit hardware device.
- The new 64 bit coded iOS 11 ONLY supports newer 64-bit hardware iDevices and 64-bit software, now.
- The iPad 4 is incompatible with this new iOS, now.
- iPad 4th gen will still work and function as it always has, but will no longer receive any more app updates sometime after the Fall of 2017.
- The 4th gen iPad has had over 5 years of iOS upgrades/updates
- The final app updates your 4th gen iPad will receive will be its last!
- Your iPad 4 will survive and stay a viable, functioning iPad for a few more years to come.
- This is why Apple introduced the new, lower cost 2017 iPad 5 model, in April
- Apple is trying to get older iPad 2, 3, 4 and 1st gen Mini iPad users to upgrade to more modern iPad hardware in anticipation of iOS 11, which will render all older 32 bit iDevices obsolete.
