There is one last thing you can try/attempt, if you need older versions of apps. These iPad models will soon be 7 and 8-years old, in 2021. These iPad models have overall internal hardware that is too old, too underpowered and incapable of running all of the new, advanced and internal hardware resource intensive features of iPadOS. The 2013 iPad Air 1, iPad Mini iPad Mini 3 cannot upgrade beyond any version of iOS 12. Your iPad Air model may not be able to upgrade/update beyond any version of iOS 12, currently at iOS 12.5.4. I hope this information provides helpful clarity as to your available options - and the limitations of your existing iPad. Sorry, I appreciate that this may not be what you were hoping to learn. Whilst many App titles remain compatible with your iPad, if you want or need to access to Apps requiring the most recent versions of iOS, you’ll need to consider replacement of your iPad with a newer or current model that supports iPadOS14. Some App developers have dropped support for iOS versions preceding iOS 13.x for technical reasons (often because APIs or software libraries upon which they rely have been updated in the new version of iPadOS, making their App incompatible with earlier versions). These devices cannot be updated to iPadOS 13 (or any later major versions of iPadOS) as the internal hardware does not meet the minimum technical requirements (CPU and RAM) for newer versions of iOS/iPadOS.
