iPad 6th gen - no OS 16?

[benwiggy]

I have a 6th-gen iPad, and it's not showing any OS updates beyond 15.7.1.

According to all the lists I've seen, iPad 5th-gen and later are supported.

Any ideas?

Definitely supported as I updated mine last night (the A10 chip version from 2018). I did notice that the software update tab highlights the update to 15.7.1 as the main update and there is a separate 'upgrade to iPadOS 16' banner below that you need to tap on to be taken the the iPadOS16 screen.

Thanks -- I still had the OS 15 beta profile installed, and deleting that fixed it.
