iPad, iOS 10
Update support for iPad4 formally ended September 2017. The final IOS releases for iPad4 were iOS 10.3.3 (WiFi Only models) and iOS 10.3.4 (WiFi & Cellular). iPad4 cannot be updated to any later major version of iOS as it lacks the minimum hardware requirements needed to run more recent versions.
Many App Developers have also dropped support for older devices and iOS versions preceding iOS11/12 - and have withdrawn older versions of their Apps from the Apple App Store. With increasing difficulty in finding current Apps that remain compatible with older models and iOS versions, without delving into unnecessary details, older devices are becoming increasingly limited in their utility and usefullness.
If Apps that you need to use now have higher minimum iOS-version requirements, your only option is to replace your iPad with newer model. Even the basic current iPad model supports current iPadOS 13.x - and has hardware specifications that will vastly outperform your old iPad4.
I hope this information is helpful - if only in clearly stating your current options.
