[Troubleshooting]
[Known Issue - Toggle to enable/disable Samsung Magician Driver does not appear in App Settings]
We are aware of an issue where the toggle to enable Samsung Magician Driver may occasionally not appear in the app's Settings page on some iPadOS versions. The driver enable/disable option is provided and managed by iPadOS, and is not controlled by the app. We have reported this behaviour and are investigating into this issue. A potential fix will be identified and released in a future version of the app, where applicable. Meanwhile, here are a few steps you can try currently to restore this option:
a. Check and try whether the toggle appears and manually updating it from these locations - On older versions of iPadOS, the option to enable Samsung Magician driver can be found under Settings > Samsung Magician > Drivers. On newer versions, this option is located under Settings > Apps > Samsung Magician.
b. Try updating your version of iPadOS or reinstall Samsung Magician and follow the steps again
[Known Limitation - P-Series Portable SSD detection over USB4]
Samsung Magician v9.0.2 currently supports Samsung P-Series Portable SSD devices over USB3 only. These devices can be detected on iPad models with USB-C ports using either USB-C or USB-4 compatible cables. However, on iPad models with USB4 ports, the device may not be detected when connected using a USB4 cable and so it is advised to use a USB-C cable for the same.
USB4 support will be added in a future version of the app.
