Remote mute for iPad pro
Is there a remote clicker to mute/unmute the sound on my iPad Pro? I can mute my smart tv with the “clicker” , why isn’t there one for my iPad?
iPad Pro, iPadOS 15

Probably because it makes little sense and also, because your iPad does not have an infrared receiver so you can use a an actual remoter to control it like your TV does.
When are you far enough from the iPad to need a remote?
In most uses you should be within arms reach of your iPad, so you can manually mute it.
If it you are fast enough from it, then its likely its connected to something that is itself playing whatever audio is coming from the iPad in which case, you would need to mute that device rather than the iPad.
You can of course offer feedback to Apple about it at Feedback - iPad - Apple
