iPad Pro not auto-locking the screen

Hi, I have an iPad Pro 12.9 (6th Gen), running on iPadOS version 16.4.


I have screen auto-lock set to 2 minutes, but the screen never locks - this across various applications, including Safari, and even on the Home Screen.

I have tried different lock times, I've also tried low power mode, but nothing makes the screen auto lock.


Any suggestions on what to try?

iPadOS 16.4 is only available as a beta version. iPadOS 16.3.1 is the current production release.


If you are running a beta version of iPadOS, you should have full expectation of encountering issues and bugs.


If you are currently enrolled in a beta programme and wish to return to using the current production version, this support page provides the necessary information to remove the beta from your iPad:
