My iPad suddenly is asking for a 6 digit passcode and mine is 4 digits
Why is my iPad suddenly asking for a 6 digit passcode when I have a 4 digit passcode?

The same happened here, but I really want to know the cause and not only how I can "solve" this. Resetting is not much help if you don't have backups......

You may have to go this route
Hi
It will be asking you to enter a new 6 digit PASSCODE its better for security
Go to settings touch& PASSCODE enter old code then change code to 6 digit PASSCODE .
I did this a few months ago on problems .

Hi
Its wanting you to udate your passcode from 4 digits to 6 for security .
Just go to settings - passcode and change it to 6 digits
I did mine last year.
Cheers

I would go to settings but I could not log in to my ipad at all 😮. The start screen, where you enter your passcode, changed the number of digits required to 6 from my original 4. I am completely unable to get into my ipad. No one was home except me so it is not possible that someone tampered with my device. I appreciate your last comment 🙂.
IS it possible to revert from 6 digit to 4 digit?
YEs, go to settings and choose "code". Then you should enter your 6 digit passcode and choose code options. Choose 4 digit and type a new code
It REQUIRES 6 digits. have no idea how you put in 4 digits.
Did you get it figured out? My grandpa just bought the iPhone 7 and the same thing happened. Now we're not sure what to do.
