Yes, a 13-year-old can have an iPad.
While a 13-year-old can have and use an iPad, there are a few points to consider regarding Apple Accounts:
- Apple Account Creation: According to information retrieved on September 26, 2024, children under 13 can't create an Apple Account independently. This age may vary depending on the region.
- Family Sharing: An adult family organizer or guardian can create an Apple Account for a child under 13 through Family Sharing. A credit card may be needed to verify that the organizer is an adult.
In short, a 13-year-old can use an iPad. If they do not already have an apple account, the age restriction for independently creating an account may vary by region; however, a family organizer or guardian can create an Apple Account for a child under 13.
