‼️After Shut Down, iPad Pro restarts again. Can’t completely shut it down after 17.0.2 update

I have 3 newer iPads, all updated to iPadOS 17.0.2 (21A351), and when I shut them down, they restart within a minute. I have forced-restart, tried turning off, and still doesn’t fix the issue. (They are fully charged) This happens to all 3 of my iPads. Until the update, this never was a problem.


Also, my iPhone 14 Pro Max is updated to 17.0.2, but does NOT have this problem.


Please help


iPad Pro (12.9-inch) (6th generation)

iPadOS 17.0.2 (21A351)

iPad Pro, iPadOS 13

Hello sunsluv,


Thanks for posting in the Apple Support Communities.


When your devices are being shutdown, do you see any error messages, or does anything appear on your screen? To clarify, are the devices connected to a power source when you're attempting to power them off? If they are, you will need to disconnect them. While they are disconnected from your charger, try powering off to see if it works.


Best regards.
