Presumably you have an iPad Pro with FaceID. Try enabling the Attention Aware feature...


Settings > FaceID & Passcode > Attention-Aware Features - set to ON


When set to ON - the iPad will sense your attention - and prevent the iPad screen from automatically dimming, or locking the display - while you are actively looking directly at the screen. The timeout period is determined by the Auto-Lock setting:


Settings > Display & Brightness > Auto Lock > select as required

Wondering what you are viewing when this screen shut down happens:

Eg: Check in Settings > Display & Brightness

Choose how long the display remains active when not being used.. look for Auto-lock or screen-timeot

(Note: If the setting is greyed out you may need to turn off low-power mode before you can change it
