I left my iPad to charge all day since it was low on battery, but now when I try to turn it on, it briefly shows the lock screen before turning off again. For the past few days, it has been notifying me about a software update that I couldn't install due to lack of storage. I'm really worried because I have five years of work stored on this device. Can anyone help?

I get how stressful this must be! If you can’t back it up through iCloud, using a computer with iTunes is your best bet. If space is really tight, you might need to free up some storage somehow, but that could be tricky if you can’t get the iPad to stay on for long. If you have important Procreate files, make sure to recover those if you can.
It sounds like your battery might be fine, but the full storage could definitely be throwing things off. If it’s totally packed, it can create problems when booting up. If you can, try plugging it into a computer and see if you can back it up using iTunes. Don’t worry too much about the software update causing this—usually, it’s the storage that’s the culprit.
