You can’t just…. Make room?? Offload some apps and then redownload once the update is in place? Move your photos to the cloud?

Yeah, at some point you need to retire or upgrade. Just got an iPhone 16 and retired my iPhone 7.

What gen? I'm rocking an Air 2. I don't even think mine gets updates anymore. Still works, so I'll keep it until it breaks.

Whatever the standard one was in 2019. Probably 7th or 8th Gen

If you have a Mac, you can update your iPad from the Finder after plugging it in. It downloads the update to your computer first, which requires less space. I’ve only tried this on a Mac, but I believe it might also work with iTunes on Windows.
