It's a bit niche but I thought I would see if I could set my iPad Pro to unlock when I was nearby with my Apple Watch on. Search in settings and it appears but it isn't visible on the actual settings page the search links to. Is this a bug or intentional?

It’s probably some iOS code that was left in iPadOS. Sad though. I would have appreciated this feature when teaching with my ipad during the pandemic.

It may be a feature that only works when a magic keyboard is connected via bluetooth to recreate that MacBook feel. I don't have a keyboard so can't test this out though.

Same question here.

It is searchable and contained in the code, but that setting is not visible in "Face ID & Passcode"

And there is no work around for this?
