Are you sure you installed 18.1? The screenshot shows you're enrolled in the "iPadOS 18 Public Beta". 18.1 is only available through the "iPadOS 18 Developer Beta" program.
Also, there is no beta profile to remove anymore; that changed a couple years ago. The equivalent now is to change the Beta Updates to "Off".
If you meant remove the beta so you can go back to iPadOS 17, you'll need to put the iPad in recovery mode to reinstall it.

Manowar - I have experienced the exact same situation with two of my iPads; a 2024 M4 IPad Pro and a Ipad Mini 6. They both show as only iPadOS 18.0 but on the beta with no pending updates.
Same thing with my Air 3, I'm on Beta 3 or 4 and it indicates iPadOS 18 Developer Beta.
The 18.1 beta isn't available for that iPad. It's only available for those that have the M1 chip or newer.
I have the 2024 M4 IPad Pro 11”, and I am also not able to install Beta beyond 18.0. I have a feeling I am doing something wrong.
It showed it was available. I started the process, the Ipad did the normal reboot and when it came back on, it was back to 18.0. It’s driving me crazy trying to figure out what I am missing. I double checked that Siri was in English (US), although I do use a Non-American voice.
You uhhh.. You know you can do that at home, right? With a cable and your computer.
Because this is happening on two different iPads for me, I have to think I have a setting that is off or not right. Of course, apple can’t help me on a beta. It’s not a huge deal so I will keep playing with my settings.
It's not available to Public Beta testers yet. It's in the 18.1 beta, which is only available to Developer Beta testers right now. The 18.1 beta will likely be available to Public Beta testers soon after 18.0 is released next month.
Also, I see you said you have Siri set to English in an earlier post. You'll need the device language set to U.S. English as well. Both of those settings are required, according to Apple.
