Apple has temporarily paused the rollout of iPadOS 18 for M4 iPad Pro models following reports that the update is bricking some devices, rendering them unusable. The issue was first highlighted by users on Reddit, who reported that their iPads turned off and could not be revived after attempting the update. Although some users experienced no issues, Apple is offering hardware replacements for those affected. The problem may be linked to users installing iPadOS 17.7 before upgrading to iPadOS 18. While the update is still available for other iPad models, Apple has not specified when the M4 iPad Pro update will be re-released. Apple is actively working to resolve the issue but has not provided a timeline for a fix.
