Safety check option now missing??

I recently check to see if my ipad had issues etc and went to settings ..privacy and security. I noticed the ‘safety check’ feature was missing. I have ios 16.2. I may have already completed the check (cant remember). However , looking now i cannot see the option! Any reason why its now missing? Im a little paranoid now!

iPad, iPadOS 16

Hello MrConcerned, 

Thank you for posting to the Apple Support Communities. 


How Safety Check on iPhone works to keep you safe. As this Apple Support article explains: 


Safety Check is available only on iPhone and only if you have a personal Apple ID (not a Managed Apple ID) that uses two-factor authentication.


The following article explains which security features are built-in to use with your iPad: Use the built-in security and privacy protections of iPad


Please reply back if you have any questions about enabling these privacy features. 

Cheers!
