Apple iOS 10 has landed and it represents one of the biggest upgrades to iOS in recent years; although it has killed off support for a number of older iPhones, iPads and iPod touch.

The Apple iOS 10 is designed for the iPhone 5 or later, iPad 4th gen or later, iPad mini 2 or later, iPad Pro range and the 6th generation iPod touch or later. Users are automatically prompted to upgrade, but if you don’t yet have a notification you can manually trigger it by going to Settings > General > Software Update

As always, the size of iOS updates differs significantly depending on your device. In the case of iOS 10 it is a major release and typically weighs in between 600MB and 1.2GB.

The iOS 10 as expected, comes with some major new features. Check on a few of them below:

New Notifications: iOS 10 goes a long way towards catching up with Android’s strongest feature with ‘Rich Notifications’. These allow direct interaction with notifications from the lockscreen (reply, view videos, etc) and there’s additional notification functionality for 3D Touch compatible devices (iPhone 6S and iPhone 7 series)

iMessage Overhaul: One of the most hotly anticipated upgrades is the radical reinvention of iMessage. Endless new ways to interact have been added, from ‘invisible ink’ (expiring messages), gifs and custom animations, to handwritten notes and a mass of new emoji.

Smarter Siri: In iOS 10 Siri has finally been opened up to third party app developers. For example, this allows voice controls to create and send WhatsApp messages, initiate Skype calls, request an Uber taxi, etc. The sky’s the limit, though it is another Android catch-up feature.

Apple Music Optimized Storage: Apple Music settings now allow you to automatically free up space by removing downloaded tracks you haven’t listened to after a predefined period. Go to: Settings > Music > Downloads. They can always be re-downloaded later.

Don’t Stop The Music(Camera): Apple has stopped the camera mode automatically killing any music recording from the device the moment it is opened. Great if your phone is also the source of music for a party. Music still stops if you want to record a video or Live Photo.

Restore Touch to Unlock: iOS 10 requires users to physically press the home button to unlock their devices, rather than just make contact for the Touch ID fingerprint scanner. If you don’t like this go to: Settings > General > Accessibility > Home Button and enable: ‘Rest Finger to Open’ to get the old method back.

iPad Specific Upgrades: Safari gets Split View support allowing two tabs to be shown side-by-side. A real productivity booster

Location Suggestions: In iOS 10 when you enter a Calendar event you will find locations are suggested automatically using Apple Maps. This is a catch up to Google Calendar in Android which taps into Google Maps for the same functionality.

Find My Car(Apple Maps): Siri automatically detects when you’re driving and drops a pin at the location you stop, so you can easily find it later.
Another notable mention is the new feel to the emoticons.

Polished Apple Music: iOS 10 brings a new UI, Search table and lyrics support

Your iPad Air is upgrade-able to the new iOS 10. Only challenge should be getting a strong wi-fi connection for the upgrade process.

Apple actually copied Android with their new "Widget Lock Screen" in the iOS 10

The problem is once you upgrade you cannot downgrade.

Thanks for the concern,tetchy.

It is actually possible. But why go through all that hassle when you've got a pretty good thing going already with your iOS 9
