iPad battery not shown in batteries widget on iPhone.

Why isn’t my iPad battery shown in batteries widget on my iPhone? Everything else is shown (watch, airpods…). I tried a few things, but nothing works.

It just doesn't work that way. For one thing, iPhone and iPad to not link via Bluetooth, so your iPhone wouldn't have a way to know the remaining percentage on your iPad. But your Watch, Airpod, etc., which are connected via Bluetooth, do communicate battery status with iPhone.
