We’re here to make you aware of some of the most common iPad issues, along with their possible solutions. These are some of the commonly-occurring iPad glitches and problems people face from time to time.

App Crashes Implies You Need An iPad Repair

Applications tend to be a troublesome bunch. Sometimes a nasty update may install on your iPad, causing your Apps to crash

What to do in such cases? Close the app completely! The iPad keeps a cache to launch recent or the last opened apps faster. If you have the new iPad without the Home Button, just swipe up and pause in the middle of the screen. If you have an earlier iPad with a home button, double-click the home button.

If you have an iOS 12 or above device, choose the apps that keep crashing and swipe up to close the app. If you have an earlier iOS, touch and hold the icon of the crashing app. Once it starts to shake, press the X(cross) button on the top left. This would force stop the app and clear it from memory.

If clearing it from memory doesn’t work, the next best thing is to uninstall the app. Most people look for this common iPad issue fix, which may not look so common at the first glance.

iPad WiFi Issue

The new iPad Pro 2021 tends to run as smooth as butter. However, some users have reported Wi-Fi connectivity issues. The new-age videos about iPad glitches and tricks will include these problems because they persist regularly since the arrival of new devices.

In such instances, try to reset your Wi-Fi router. Does the issue persist? Then try to restart the iPad. This may help reset the hardware to detect a better signal.

If you’re still facing trouble after the above step,  check your network settings.

For network-specific issues, go to Settings > Wi-Fi, tap on the network you want to forget and press “Forget This Network”. Then try to reconnect to the same network using the correct credentials.

If everything else fails, reset the device. To reset, take a backup of your data, and then go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings

iPad Screen Keeps freezing

If your iPad screen is freezing, it could be due to a software conflict or a corrupt memory.

The number one resolution for this is to turn the iPad off and then turn it on again. You can do this by pressing and holding the power button. Swipe the slider to power off. This resets the hardware to its default state before the crash, thereby flushing the memory.

iPad screen still not functioning?

Force restart the iPad. Press the volume up button once, press and release the volume down button and, subsequently, press and hold the power button till the device restarts.

If your screen is still freezing up, it might be an actual display issue, send it to the iPad repair specialists.

iPad Stuck on Startup logo

An iPad getting stuck on the startup Apple logo can be a totally different problem altogether. The issue could stem from numerous issues within the boot software system.

In such cases, reset the iPad’s software system to factory settings. Be warned, however, that this may delete your iPad’s data, so make sure you take a backup first. Then try to turn it on and off a couple of times before taking this route.

To reset, press the Volume Up, Volume Down and also the top/side power button in succession. Hold the power button till you see the connection to iTunes image. Connect it to your PC or Mac’s iTunes through the lightning cable and follow the directions on iTunes.

iTunes doesn’t recognize the iPad

When iTunes doesn’t recognize an iPad, the matter may stem either from iTunes or from the iPad.

Go ahead and update the software. On Mac, head to Apple menu > System Preferences > Software Update. On a PC, open iTunes and select Help > Check for Updates.

if it still fails to recognize the iPad, try to restart the iPad once.

Check with another lightning cable and USB port. If nothing works, uninstall your iTunes and download the latest version of iTunes.

Most of these iPad problems can be solved by common troubleshooting ways like shutting it down, force restarting and resetting. During times when none of these methods work, call the experts.

iPad Not Turning On

If we’re talking about some of the most common iPad glitches and fixes, then we must also list this problem that users may face anytime soon and might be caught with a surprise as they try to turn on their iPad to start with the day’s work. One of the basic problems with iPad can be that they won’t just start. Is your device not turning on? Does charging your dead iPad have no effect whatsoever? If this problem persists your iPad might have a battery issue but you can try to connect it with a different lightning cable just to be sure your cable isn’t faulty. There might also be a problem with a low wattage USB power charger or faulty plug-line.

Making sure you’re charging with a 12 watts USB charger for iPads. If it is still not working you can perform a full reset.

Press the volume up, volume down, and then the top button and wait for any logo to show up. Let it sit on charging for 20-odd minutes if the problem persists. Same trouble after 20 minutes? Call the experts to fix this and all other iPad glitches and problems you may be facing.
