iPad mini smart cover

I have a Smart Cover from my first gen iPad mini. It doesn’t seem to want to stay on my new iPad mini, nor is lock/unlock working. I thought the cases stayed the same....anyone know if the smart cases changed?

iPad mini, iOS 13

Hello,


The iPad design was changed between iPad mini (3rd generation) and iPad mini (4th generation). A Smart Cover for iPad mini (1st generation) is incompatible with iPad mini (4th or 5th generation).
