   Stumped by this one. Setting up an iPad with iCloud restore, and none of the apps are downloading automatically. Tapping one brings this up.

   I'm on my Wi-Fi network, other connectivity works… and while this iPad does have cellular, no plan has ever been activated on it yet.

   Reboots and Reset Network Settings haven't fixed it. iPadOS 26.1. Tapping "Download" immediately downloads the item over Wi-Fi.

   Anyone ever see this? Any ideas?

     @marcoarment Saw this when setting up a new iPad for a friend right after iPadOS 26 was released. It resolved overnight. I have no idea why.
