How Do I Figure Out Which iPad I Have?
Okay, real talk — you're at the Apple Store trying to buy a case, and the question hits you: wait… which iPad is this again? Don't worry, we've all been there. Let's sort this out together, shall we?
Your first stop is Settings. Tap on "General," then "About." Right there, you'll see a snazzy little field called "Model Name." It'll say something like "iPad Air (4th generation)" — magic, right? If you want the nerdier details, look for the "Model Number" too. That alphanumeric code is basically your iPad's social security number, but for tech geeks.

On most iPads, especially older models, you'll find small text printed right on the back with the model number. Grab a magnifying glass if you need to. There's no shame!
