Hello -

Need help; I am not able to install ios 18 public beta on ipad mini 5; I checked the compatibility list on the ipados beta website and it says, its compatible with mini 5 version.

I have tried both using settings and try to find beta update option but its not there
and
tried to install the beta profile and that's not working either.

ipad is updated with the latest 17.6 version of the ipad os.

This icloud id that is associated with this ipad is of my daughter and she is less than 18 years old; I've also removed any screen-time constraints from the device.

Any help would be appreciated. thanks.
 
You will need to enroll your daughter’s Apple ID into Apple Beta Program. Once it is done, you should see an option to install iPadOS 18 Beta on her iPad (in Software Update):

 
oh okay, let me try with that..thank you so much for your help
