Where did the iPad cover lock functionality go in iOS 10? It used to be under Settings, General but is now gone and cover lock doesn't work now.
iPad, iOS 10
Hi Diana, I'm using ipad mini 2 with IOS 10.3.3.... My i pad locked when I close the smart cover but it doesn't unlock when I flip up the cover. I had enable the feature under general - display & brightness - lock / unlock. What can I do ?
Thanks, however, this doesn't address the iPad cover lock on close issue. The functionality has been removed with the iOS 10 update thereby rendering the cover lock useless.
Hi
Cannot find cover lock but ipad mini 4 ios 10 still going off when cover is closed
Think it may be now automatic with some iPad cases.
Cheers
Brian
It's under Settings > Display and Brightness. And you are right, it has moved. Who knew?
Thanks Diana! What a crazy place to move it to!
Hi Chefelim. When you open the Smart Cover, the iPad should not unlock. It should wake up and display the Lock screen, with "Press Home to unlock" at the bottom. Does your iPad do this?
