Hey, everyone!
Im loving my iPad and apple pencil. I've owned iPads from the beginning; there's something more, inviting, with the iPad pro. It makes me want to use it, makes me want to do more. Maybe it's the price tag :p

The only problem I'm having is if I leave it open. When idle, it will periodically "wake up" and ask to enter my lock screen password. As if someone pressed a button and tried to swipe to unlock. If I didn't have a Smart Cover this would be even more of a problem.

It doesn't look like it's eating my battery(which I will say this thing has great battery life). I started from blank and didn't restore from backup. I'm not really looking to start over again, but I'm thinking I might have to just to see.

Any suggestions or thoughts? It's not notifications, since those wouldn't ask for password. I'm hoping others are experiencing the same and I can just wait until update!
 
Sounds like it could be activity on another device connected to your ICloud/Apple ID.
Several have noticed this but no one knows for certain why this is happening, but it's possible it could be related to ^^^^
Could just be a bug or is related to devices syncing.
