13.7 breaks screen brightness control

Since my iPad Pro auto updated to iOS 13.7 I’m unable to change screen brightness. I’ve tried in settings, in the hot menu and after restart.

iPad Pro 10.5-inch, Wi-Fi

I had the same issue after it auto updated. It was unresponsive to brightness controls. Found an older post from an earlier release update that suggested rebooting and that fixed the ability to control the brightness from control dock and Settings/brightness. This release, however, seems to have removed the Warm control in Settings/brightness, which I always liked for eye fatigue.
