I gotta ask if you are saying "wind chill"? Inanimate objects such as a iPad aren't changed or made colder with any wind. 32 degrees is still 32 degrees wind or not...isn't it?
The wind will cool it faster to ambient temperature than if there was no wind, but wind chill will not make anything colder than it is outside.
This is true but, as the OP didn't say what the actual temperature was other than saying not that cold. Apple lists the normal temperature operating range for the iPad as 32° – 95° F. While using the device below the freezing point may cause the screen to lag a bit, it will still function. I know I am not out there flying anything in 32F
I've done a few flights at -10 C, on the second flight I got the cold temp warning on the screen from the Mini 2 but the device was good to go. Hands get cold quick though, not fun.This is true but, as the OP didn't say what the actual temperature was other than saying not that cold.

Well is what I meant. Put a 10 mph wind with that then it feels colder and would think it would affect anything but might be wrong. Have been before but can always expect to be corrected. ?
You Sir wouldn't be the first to not understand wind chill. I believe I learned the effects or I should say the science in around the 7th grade. Our instructor put two thermometers outside, one inside a can (To block wind) and one left out in the wind. Both read the same a hour later.
We are moderators and are never wrong!?
My experience with real cold came on a trip to see the polar bears in Churchill, Manitoba ,Canada, in 2011. This was a 5 days trip, living on the tundra, in a vehicle called a tundra buggy. We had a sleeping car, a dining car, and photography platform. We could only be outside no more than 5 minutes before the cold was intolerable. We had to keep our batteries in our pockets near our groins or our power faded from full battery to nil in five minutes. Here are a few images of another company's tundra buggy. (Ours was 4 cars long plus driver's car).
So that small Blue one is the bait food people?
I do a lot of astro timelapse photography, shooting 2 hour Milky Ways in cold weather at mountain tops. I set up the tripods and cameras while it is still light out, so when the air cools down, the lenses fog over internally! I have solved this problem with HAND WARMERS AND A RUBBER BAND. I put a hand warmer on each side of the lens and hold them in place with rubber bands. It works wonderfully. You could also use hand warmers in a small thermal cooler for the same effect! They stay warm for 12 hours! Here are some from Amazon.
That happens in aircraft especially when the pilot lays the ipad on the right seat. The cabin temp can be at 68f. but the screen goes black and says overheat. You can count on it only happening when you need it.
