how to set ipad so it turns on by opening cover
With a few materials and your favorite iPad case, you can create your own Smart Cover that locks and unlocks your device. First, go to Settings > General and turn iPad Cover Lock/Unlock on. To turn your case into a Smart Cover, simply cut the magnetic tape to 1 inch less the height of your case. Then, center and stick the tape on the side of the case that meets the magnetic side (right) of your iPad. Now, when you close your case, the iPad will lock, and when you open it, it will unlock.
