Ever since I was updating my iPad I checked my alarm and found out that my bedtime alarm has moved to my Alarms category. When I first saw this I was like “Wait, where is bedtime mode?” I tried looking all over for it and it disappeared. I don’t know why is it gone, I mean for the iPhones they are good but even tho I don’t own an iPhone. So what now?
iPad, iPadOS 14
Fully agree: can Apple bring back this feature?? Why change this feature?? a bit of flexibility Apple please. Or bring the nice sounds that we could only find in Bedtime to Clock. I am sure you can do it!! In the meantime, i am changing my alarm app...Thank you

I agree. I read before bed so have my iPad beside my bed. My alarm did not go after the update - or should I say did but the sound was not loud enough to wake even my dogs. This is a HUGE fail.
I do not want both my devices in my bedroom and I am not reading on my iPhone before bed - otherwise what is the point of owning an iPad.
Apple don’t see any posts or comments here - so your plea will fall upon deaf ears.
To reiterate, Apple do invite constructive feedback and feature requests via their feedback portal:

Our autistic daughter went ballistic when Apple randomly removed Bedtime from their alarm options in her iPad. She delights in waking up to the sound of chirping birds. Routines and stability are important to her, so you can imagine how frustrating this was. Dawn Chorus is a free app I discovered after some research that has multiple bird call choices. This app saved the day. Why in the world would Apple do this??? It was a nice feature!
I recommend that you offer constructive feedback to Apple via their feedback page:

Why should I have an IPhone? You should provide more features not less, if the Heath app is not going to be on iPad provide one alternative that won’t work on iPhone.
You're not addressing Apple. This is a user-to-user technical support forum and Apple's participation here is minimal. If you want Apple to know your thoughts, use the Feedback page:
side note: it’s hard to get a telco support when your product doesn’t receive sms nor phone calls nor WhatsApp what’s the concept of paying more money for less features?
That is between you and your carrier. If they don't offer a way to support their customers with iPads, shame on them.

Noooooooooo!!!
it was my most used feature, w
WHY????
please bring it back!
Apple is not reading here for suggestions. You can let them know your thoughts here:
Meanwhile, you can use the regular alarm function or look through the third-party alarm/sleep tracking apps available in the App Store to see if one better meets your needs.

I agree. Apple please bring back the bedtime function for the clock app for iPad. There is no reason to remove it. I have used it every day since it was introduced. Another ridiculous decision by Apple.

Please Apple, bring back Bedtime for iPad.
This is a user-to-user forum. Apple doesn't read here for suggestions. You can let them know your thoughts here:
Meanwhile, iPads have a perfectly functional alarm clock that you and your children can use:
Set an alarm on iPad - Apple Support
Or, if that doesn't meet your needs, you can download one of the hundreds (thousands?) of clock apps available on the App Store.
Bedtime was removed from the version if iPadOS that was released last September.
same here i just realized that the bedtime tab wasn’t there and as i disabled all my alarms without looking, i woke up late for school,
the bedtime featured was a really good one and should come back to ipad
Same issue. What I liked about bedtime was I didn’t have to worry about headphones being connected or alerts coming through. It just worked. Today I had the alarm set, and guess what? No sound. I have no issue with Apple moving bedtime to health app, but come on, think a little bit about the iPad users. What do we do now?
Xactly
I rolled back to IOS 13 as a result and my iPad will stay there until this is added back in a way I like
At a bare minimum, how about getting the sounds back?
I can add the Do Not Disturb Manually
and add the old sound back to the alarm manually

I would like the Bedroom mode back also. The Health App isn’t available on the IPad and the regular alarms are not loud enough.
Also while they are at it, can they fix the battery widget to actually show the percentages instead of a picture. I’m about to roll back to iPadOS 13.
I’m just finding this out now! I as well used the bedtime feature on my iPad. I was wondering why my alarm changed to an abrupt shrill tone instead of the calm soothing wake up I’m used to. Way to mess with my psyche apple !
Why, why, why. Change a really enjoyable function. Soothing wake up sounds and a system that worked well. I don’t own an iPhone, so health app not being on iPad means missing out in the bedtime app. Not good apple.
Bedtime mode Currently gone in iPadOS 14.
