I had a Samsung or LG phone that allowed this... very convenient.... just wondering if iPads can do this?

thanks!

Why not use the double tap on the back of the phone…
Settings/Accessibility/Touch/Back Tap

Settings > Accessibility > AssistiveTouch (On) > Custom Actions > Double Tap > Lock Screen

It gives you a little round screen button that you can adjust opacity. I have a single tap setup on all my devices top center of screen. It gets in the way sometimes but on my cockpit iPad Air 3 Electronic Flight Bag (EFB), it's very convenient to be able to tap once and Lock Screen.

I was trying to avoid having to pick up the iPad from the desk....

I have that set on my iPhone also, does double tapping the back logo to lock screen work on the iPad also?

If you have a folio iPad case, just open the cover, the iPad turns on. Close the cover, the iPad turns off.
