Does the magnetic cover make the iPad sleep when it's closed?

Sometimes, not always. If you take special care to make sure it is closed smoothly, and you place the ipad upside down on the opening end it works.

Yes, it does. This functions like the apple smart screen, although I like the feel of this cover a lot better.

Yes it does. You can change this setting, however, on the iPad, which I actually chose to do. Sometimes it didn't always make it sleep (like, if I wasn't careful to make sure I had connected the magnets properly or if it got dislodged in my back back or something).

It does have a magnetic closure which works very well. If you close the cover it will go to sleep and come back on when you open it. I have only had it a few days, but am very pleased.

It has a magnet to close the case but not a automatic magnet that turns the iPad

I wondered the same thing when I bought it. I was disappointed to find that it does not put the iPad in sleep mode. But other models similar to it do.

Just the front which is the important part you want to protect because of the expensive glass. It's a magnetic cover that automatically attached and when you open it, the iPad turns on. When you close the cover, the iPad goes off (sleep). Hope this answers your question.

The cover has a magnetic cover, which will close or turn off the ipad when it shuts, and turn it on when the cover is opened. By turning off and on, I mean more like putting it to sleep/waking it up. It does not shut it completely down. I think this is a very handy feature to have in an ipad cover. And I love this ipad cover.

It is kept closed by close fit around the iPad. Remember that magnets and computers don't get along.

The standard ipad magnetic cover will come off easily without removing the back case. The magnetic on/off feature of the cover isn't quite as good with the case though, so you have to be certain it turns off when you shut the cover.

It has a magnet, but unfortunately it doesn't automatically makes my tablet go into sleep mode. I have to do it myself before closing it. But in all, it's a pretty good case.

Yes it will put it into sleep mode when shut. When opened it goes to the log on screen. I don't believe that any covers actually turn it "off" as in power gone. Love this cover though and 3 family members have also gotten one after seeing mine either for their. Mini or IPad. Hope that helps.

My case does have a magnet to hold the front cover closed, but it does not turn my ipad on or off. Alice

That is a cover/lid when I close it, it goes to sleep. But I didn't get a magnet

No. Why would it? The official kindle case from Amazon also uses magnets to help keep it closed and that's how the auto sleep/wake function works....

Yes. It locks the ipad when you close it, and turns it back on when you open it.

It will be put on stand by, not exactly shut off. When you open the cover, the iPad wakes up.

Yes there is a small magnet that holds the cover shut, i dont know what others were complaining about my cover stays shut just fine

I thought the magnet kept the cover closed when I threw it into the car but, according to the description, it activates the sleep/wake feature.
