The iPad Mini (WiFi) – MD531LL/A was released in 2012 and features a 7.9″ display, a Silver housing, and 16GB of storage.
Hi!! I have a mini IPAD Model MD531LL/A.
Third party app developers abandoned and stopped supporting these 8-10-year old iOS devices nearly 4 years, ago, in 2018. AND, NO WAY to, initially, install any older, compatible, third party apps into this old iPad, any longer!
In addition, the internal, rechargeable batteries in these old iPads are, also, running on borrowed time. Not worth the costs to replace these old internal, rechargeable batteries in these old iPads, any longer, either.
There are PLENTY of less expensive, newer, older iPad models that can run the latest, current versions of iPadOS. All of these older model iPads below, CAN, currently, run the latest releases of iPadOS 15.
Which iPad do I have? How to tell your iPad generation and model
You can also check whether you have a home button or twin rear cameras to tell which iPad you have. It’s been more than a decade since the iPad first hit the market, and Apple has since released over two dozen different models and “generations.” Figuring out exactly which iPad model you own lets you know how much storage space you’re supposed to have, which accessories to buy, and how old your device is. Here’s how to find your iPad’s model number, and use that to check the generation and version.
To quickly see which iPad you have, find this model number and then search for it online or consult the list at the end of this article. Tap Model Number to reveal a short code that starts with the letter “A.”
Underneath the iPad logo, beside the word “Model,” you’ll see a capital letter A followed by a few numbers. That’s the model number, and with it you can search for your specific iPad generation online, or you can just reference our list below.
Newer iPad generations will not have a small circular home button at the bottom of the tablet’s face. Apple stopped including the home button on newer iPads when they started using facial recognition technology. Check out our guide on how to add a virtual home button to your iPhone or iPad screen with Assistive Touch. If you purchased an iPad Pro within the past few years, an easy way to identify the generation is if it has twin cameras.
Newer iPad Pro models have twin rear cameras. Quick tip: The new iPad 10th generation model has also changed the front camera placement to the side of the screen — all other iPads have front cameras on the top of the screen.
You can also press Ctrl + F or Command + F and type in your model number to find it in the tables immediately.

Restored Apple iPad mini MD531LL/A (16GB, Wi-Fi Only, White / Silver) (Refurbished)
I was a little afraid to purchase at first due to reviews saying the item is too out of date to update but as soon as I opened it and set it up I was able to update to the latest system and download all the games(roblox, TikTok, etc.)
