If your iPad’s “Sleep/Wake” button is broken, use the Settings menu to shut down your iPad.
Depending on your iPad’s screen size, you may need to scroll down in the middle of the screen to see the Shut Down option.
Force-restarting your iPad can cause some apps to crash, and you may lose any unsaved work.
Hold down the “Sleep/Wake” button until the “slide to power off” switch appears. Slide right the “slide to power off” switch. Wait for your iPad’s screen to go black.
