How can I remove all iPad passcodes for easy access?

System Software updates can cause difficulties for some users when new features are automatically enabled by the update, and/or some settings are reset. Your frustration is clearly understood.

You can certainly disable/remove the iPad Passcode if you wish - this having the side effect of completely disabling all security functions including TouchID/FaceID (as appropriate for the iPad model that you have). If Apps that you Son requires have no requirement for Passcodes, Passwords or other authentication, this might be a viable.

If contemplating this path, be mindful that you may encounter unanticipated consequences - however, should they occur, you can reinstate the iPad Passcode and restore full functionality if you need to do so. Also be aware that the iPad will have no protection whatsoever from unauthorised access.

Assuming that the iPad is not centrally managed by a third-party service provider, you can disable the iPad Passcode from settings:

Settings > TouchID | FaceID & Passcode > Turn Passcode Off

You would be wise to keep a written record of the device Passcode someplace safe. Doing so provides assurance that if, at some future time the Passcode is required, you have easy access to it.

Turn off wifi in settings and Apple will no longer bother you… in face nobody will.

Therein lies your potential difficulty in that the iPad might be managed by this company - or, has set account credentials and potentially settings or other restrictions. Without the at least the Apple Account (AppleID) that was used, you will encounter considerable difficulties.

If Kicker doesn't keep records - and you don't have record of what they were - you will need Apple's assistance. In almost all cases, Apple will require proof of ownership. Usually, this requires the original Sales invoice that clearly shows the device serial number.

Apple does provide the self-help facilities to recover account credentials. If these have been forgotten, they can be recovered here:

To recover your credentials, you’ll need access to one of the following:

• Your primary email address mailbox that corresponds with your AppleID
• Any of the secondary/recovery email addresses that should be configured for your AppleID account
• Any of the trusted telephone numbers (fixed line or Cellular/Mobile) that are associated with your AppleID

Kicker is that the company that set it up for him said they gave us the password for the icloud account and they don't save them. But we never recieved the password so pretty stuck at this point. Apple said they are going to call us Monday about recovering the icloud account. It just blows me away that if I need this much security on a device I'd use a computer.

Excuse me‽!
