Is there anyway to remove this notification? I bought an iPad as a gift for someone else and ever since it shipped I've had this notification on my own iPad. I thought it would go away automatically , but it hasn't.
iPad Air 2 Wi-Fi
Hi MaryMCO, thank you for posting in Apple Support Communities.
The notice indicates that you may have used the Apple available temporary iCloud service which saves a backup of your iPad to the iCloud in preparation for transferring to a new iPad as per the following link.
https://support.apple.com/en-au/HT212732
This service is available for up to 21 days and as such the notification does not disappear until that time and there is no way, at this time) to force quit it the notification.
Sorry but I hope that helps explain it.

This does not resolve the issue because I did not use the temporary iCloud service. And I verified that I have never used iCloud backup and do not have any data in iCloud. You state "you MAY have used the Apple available temporary iCloud service...", therefore, this support article does not apply to everyone receiving the "get ready" message.
I finally resolved this myself. I don't use iCloud backup so I backed up my iPad to my Mac, just in case. Then on my iPad, I logged out of iCloud after turning off FindMy. I shut down then restarted the iPad then logged back in to iCloud. Of course, it turned everything iCloud related back on, so I had to turn everything off again. The only weird glitch was turning off iCloud Photos. It told me it would delete all photos off of my iPad. Since I had a back up, I said ok. However, the photos were not deleted from my iPad. The "get ready" message that was in the settings is now gone. Hope this helps the rest of you having this issue.
C’mon, Apple. In my case, I purchased an iPad for my wife. Now my iPad wants to set her new one up by transferring my data over.
Please create a dismiss feature.
A dismiss button may be a good idea, and the users/volunteers here may agree with it, but you need to tell actual Apple staff through their official portal for feedback and suggestions: Product Feedback - Apple
