iPad Shut Down options are greyed out.

I checked where you said under Display and Brightness/shut down and it’s set for 2 minutes (greyed out). It is turned off and if I turn it on, the 2 is still grey and I am unable to change it to make it longer.

iPad, iPadOS 18

If your iPad is centrally managed by an Enterprise/Business or an Educational establishment, applied policies may fix or restrict access to some device settings. In such circumstances, you'll need to seek assistance from the System Administrator that manages your device.


Be aware that your iPad auto-lock will be fixed at two minutes if you have enabled Low Power mode:

Settings > Battery > Low Power Mode
