My Ipad Pro Speaker option is completely missing and stuck in headphone mode

My Ipad Pro Speaker option is completely missing, i can't watch video on speaker mode as the option does not appear when i attempt to switch to it. I have try the usual method i seen offer on the internet like cleaning the jack, plug and unplug a headphone, disable bluetooth, turn off silent mode, turn off focus mode and even reset my device to factory setting and updating my device to the latest software update (IpadOS 17.7.8).

The image show that my device is in headphone but nothing is plug in and bluetooth is turn off, i do not have any bluetooth device connected to this Ipad prior to this.

Reading the troubleshoting staps you already performed, put your device on charge for at least half an hour, then, keeping it plugged in, try a "forced" restart of your iPad, using these instructions:

  • On an iPad with a Home button: Press and hold the power button and the Home button at the same time. When the Apple logo appears, release both buttons.
  • On other iPad models: In rapid sequence, press and quickly release the volume up button, press and quickly release the volume down button, then press and hold the power button. Only when the Apple logo appears (it might take 10-20 seconds), release that button (ignore all other screens that might appear, the one with the "slider" to turn the device off included).


If the issue persists, I suggest that you make an appointment (*) and have your device inspected at an Apple Store or AASP (Apple Authorized Service Provider) among this list:--> https://locate.apple.com/choose-country-region . After checking it out, they'll give you all the available options.
