How do I update/change Certificate Trust Settings?

I have an iPad Air (15th gen), which is fully updated. I want to see what certs. are installed, but I just see numbers and no link for editing.

I tried pressing on the numbers, but of course nothing happens.

I did the following: GENERAL > scrolling all the way to Trust Certificates> Tap arrows.


Hopefully someone out there may know!

Thank you!

iPad Air

Hello Prince_1999,


This is something typically done only by system administrators. This article may offer some additional insight: Trust manually installed certificate profiles in iOS and iPadOS - Apple Support. It explains:


"You must manually turn on trust for SSL/TLS when you install a profile that is sent to you via email or downloaded from a website.

If you want to turn on SSL/TLS trust for that certificate, go to Settings > General > About > Certificate Trust Settings. Under "Enable full trust for root certificates," turn on trust for the certificate.

iPhone Certificate Trust Settings

Apple recommends deploying certificates via Apple Configurator or Mobile Device Management (MDM). Certificate payloads are automatically trusted for SSL when installed with Configurator, MDM, or as part of an MDM enrollment profile."


We hope this helps. Let us know if we can assist with anything else at all. Take care.
