iPad asking for Passcode after automatic update - passcode was never set
My son's iPad Mini 4, which we've had for years, just completed an automatic update and was prompting for a passcode which was never set on the device. I've searched articles and forums, and tried to provide the default passcodes suggested but nothing is working. It's extremely frustrating. I just had to work with Apple a couple weeks back after an update on my iPad Pro basically bricked my device. After speaking with Apple reps I learned that there is a new development team specifically developing the iPad software. I hope these issues are being escalated because I've been using Apple devices for years and have never had a single problem like this before. Now we've encountered two major bugs which have completely taken our devices out of commission. APPLE, please look into this.
