Changing screen time minutes on ipad
9th generation ipad will not allow me to change screen lock time from two minutes, is grey and won’t open like my others did. I really want to increase that time.
iPad, iOS 10

iPad auto-lock will be fixed at two minutes if you have enabled Low Power mode:
Settings > Battery > Low Power Mode
If the problem persists after disabling Low Power Mode, perform a forced-restart of your iPad:
- On an iPad with a Home button: Press and hold the top button and the Home button at the same time. When the Apple logo appears, release both buttons.
- On other iPad models: Press and quickly release the volume up button, press and quickly release the volume down button, then press and hold the top button. When the Apple logo appears, release the button.
You might also check that Date & Time and TimeZone are also correctly set for your iPad - as these settings are known to cause various functional issues if incorrectly configured:
Settings > General > Date & Time
