Do you have a particular problem, or are you simply looking to reset your iPad to its “factory” state? Remote reset isn’t possible, but you should be able to perform the majority of “reset” actions yourself without assistance.


To restart your iPad, see:

Restart your iPad - Apple Support


If your iPad is unresponsive - or otherwise misbehaving - a forced restart will often clear the problem:

Should you wish to restore your iPad to factory settings, this support page outlines the process. You should note that this process will reinstall the most recent version of iOS/iPadOS supported by your iPad:

If you intend to erase and reset the iPad before giving it away, selling, or trading-in your iPad, you are advised to prepare the iPad properly before doing so:

If you need assistance with any of the above, consider a visit to the Genius Bar at your local Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider (AASP) - where the technicians will be able to provide help. Whilst not necessarily a prerequisite, making an appointment is recommended:
