The Watch Workplace Picnic Goal OnlineiPadOS 18 rollout isn't going exactly as planned.

Apple has reportedly pulled iPadOS 18 for M4 iPad Pro devices, per MacRumors, over an update that is causing issues for some iPads.

According to reports on Reddit and Apple's official Community portal, iPadOS 18 is "bricking" select M4 iPad Pro devices (bricking is slang for rendering the device completely useless as it cannot be turned on anymore).

"At some point during the update my iPad turned off, and would no longer turn on. I walked away during the update so I’m not sure when it broke. I tried all of the reset options but nothing worked. I just took it to the Apple Store who confirmed it’s completely bricked, but they said they had to send it out to their engineers before they can give me a replacement even though I have Apple care," wrote one Redditor.

"I updated my iPad Pro M4 to iOS 18. It did not go well, the iPad won't turn on, hard reset doesn't work and it doesn't show up on my Mac," wrote a user on Apple's forums.

The issue doesn't seem to extend to all M4 iPad Pro devices as some users have reported updating to iPadOS 18 without issue. Still, Apple has temporarily pulled the update for all M4 iPad Pros.

"We have temporarily removed the ‌iPadOS 18‌ update for M4 ‌iPad Pro‌ models as we work to resolve an issue that is impacting a small number of devices," Apple told MacRumors in a statement.

It's unclear whether the affected iPads can be fixed with a software update, or whether they have to be taken to an Apple repair centre. For now, owners of M4 iPad Pro devices will not get the option to update to iPadOS 18, which should prevent further issues until the matter is resolved.
