Why does my new iPad Pro M5 say "Synching with ICloud paused" in my messages? It’s at 92% so the battery is high. And I have very little stored on the device, because it’s brand new, so it’s not full. I’ve tried shutting it off twice, and it still says that. Many of my messages are there from the initial startup, but it still continues to say syncing with iCloud paused.

well unless you rent more space you only get 5gb storage in icloud, so could it be because you're running out of space, disabling it to keep syncing more data up there?

Perhaps a long shot:
Do you have a 3rd party VPN installed, even if you are not using it? If so, delete the VPN profile in Settings/General/VPN & Device Management/VPN, then restart your device. Don't just turn it off; delete the profile. Updates sometimes "break" VPN, and it needs to be removed. If that fixes it, you can try reinstalling VPN, but probably shouldn't.
Brand new IPad Pro and I’ve added nothing.
No VPN, but thanks for your reply, Lawrence.
