iPad Pro touch screen intermittent unresponsive

When you say temporary (regarding turning touch accommodations on), does the lag simply return at some point in time? I do know I don’t have a “touch to wake” setting on my device so could never try that.

If you update and don’t face with touch issue we understand that the problem is because of some hardware issues

but i can’t ask you to update your ipad because it is a big risk

i wish I could restore to your iOS version and see my problem gone because I bought a second hand ipad pro 12.9 2nd generation on iOS 12 and the problem begin after few days and now i am so disappointed 😫😫

Unfortunately i can’t return it and get my money back and I should sell it if i want

and if i sell my ipad i will buy a Surface but I didn’t make a decision yet

what do you think about Surface tablets ?!

I have no issue with the Microsoft Surface tablets except they try to be two things at once and I don't particularly think these excel at either.

Also, I am NOT a fan or user of MS Windows OS.

At the same time, Surface tablets can be hardware configured with lots of purchase options and these tablets have lots of connection ports and a nice range of input devices.

I am a fan of the Surface Dial. I wish Apple had something like that for iPads.

I like the keyboards that you can purchase with a Surface tablet, too!

I still think an iPad is a better, more dedicated tablet option.

Not a PC/tablet hybrid, like the Surface lineup.

Buuut, I keep my eyeballs on the MS Surface products.

There is a lot to like about them.

Not every iPad Pro made ( even ones made in the last three years ) has this issue, but if you purchase a discounted, refurbished from Apple's Refurbished & Clearance section of Apple's Website and once ypu purchase this, purchase extended two-year AppleCare+, if anything goes wrong, you have, at least, now 2 full years of warranty coverage from Apple for any problems.

I’m not sure but i think this problem happened for about 90 percent of iPad Pros because i saw many posts in this thread and other threads that people said that Apple changed their iPad Pros for 3 or 4 times and always the issue happened after a short period of time

No.

Not true.

You are talking about millions of iPad Pro models sold over three years!

There is NO where, NO WHERE where there are millions of iPad Pro user posting of this unresponsive issue.

If this unresponsive touch screen issue was sooooo widespread, the tech and TV media would have been ALL OVER THIS by now and Apple would have had to come up with some sort of fix for this long, ago.

Even if this has affected 100,000 iPad Pro models, this is still anywhere from 5%-10% of affected users.

A small minority of affected iPad Pro models.

I do not think this affects anywhere near 100,000 users.

Maybe, MAYBE, 10,000 to 20,000 users, or so.

An even a smaller minority group of affected users!

Don't be ridiculous.

It’s not ridiculous

1. There are many of people who didn’t post anything like me that follow many threads for weeks to find a solution and didn’t post until now
2. many people who had an Apple store in their cities directly talk with Apple’s employees
3. How that people after change their ipads for 3 or 4 times always faced with this problem ? It’s unbelievable that they are such bad chance people
4. if you believe that the problem happened for few percent of iPad Pros then why you didn’t update yet ?

Because it is a random and completely unpredictable bug/issue, as I already stated to you, earlier!

There is NO pattern to those iPad Pros already affected.

No causation as to what causes this issue.

NONE.

I do not want my iPad Pro to become one of this minority group.

i am not arguing with you on this.

Actually, for the past couple of weeks, there have been NO new postings of this iPad Pro unresponsive touch screen issues.

Believe what you will.

Do what you will.

I am done.

FYI, not that you need to know, but the new iPadOS is too radical an improvement on iOS to NOT upgrade to, so as soon as the iPadOS download/install frenzy is over after the first few weeks, my iPad Pro WILL BE getting and running the new iPadOS.

I will use iTunes on my Mac, as I always do, and will just have to take the risk, take a leap of faith and hope for a successful iOS upgrade outcome.

Older iPad Pros that use the older Home button design, do not have this temporary fix option, like the 2018, 3rd gen iPad Pros do.

There is no temporary fix for any of the older iPad Pro models.

None.

Look my friend

i’m not your enemy and i’m Sorry if i made you sad or angry

but respectfully I think that the problem happened more than what you think but I don’t know why the Apple don’t do anything to fix this issue

At the end , thank you for spending your time to talk with me 😊🙏

90? Not even close. This forum is the most widely visited iPad forum in the world. The amount of people coming here is statistically insignificant in comparison to the number of iPad being used around the world every day.

I have two iPad Pro 11's neither of which have any touch issues. If this affected 90% of all iPad Pro owners, this thread would be so replied to, by so many people, but it's not really. And that's because the vast majority of iPad Pro users don't have an issue and have no need to come here to tell us they are having a great time with their iPad.

Thanx for coming to the rescue.

I have no idea why users that sign up here with any Apple product issues happening to them, to be a serious issue and then continue to claim that it is affecting MILLIONS!

It is just ridiculous.

Thanks, again for chiming in.

👍

You're welcome. What I have a true disdain is absurd irrationality and making statements as fact, with zero statistics to back up their claim. But after all these years, how many times have we seen someone who has a problem, thus EVERYONE must have that problem!

I am also using the iPad Pro 10.5 inch for the last 5 months and I notice it very frequently while playing games..

I use four fingers while playing and some times not all fingers are registered and this happens very randomly but when this does it doesn’t go away until I restart the iPad completely.

very annoying and couldn’t find any fix for it

So, now iPadOS 13 is out, I can speak about it 😉

Well... No improvement, so sad 😢

Actually, fun fact, after updating to iPadOS 13.1, arrived on my passcode screen, my iPad froze... So I knew strait away!

I will continue looking for a solution. My major worry is, how can I sell my iPad Pro, worth 700$, to anyone, with this issue?! The guy will send it back to me after a few days. So I am stuck with an unreliable expensive device.
