I have included a screenshot of my current hardware and software so you can see that I’m using a fraction of the iPads resources. Yet it’s constantly freezing. This frustrating problem has been happening for months now. Please help.
iPad Air, iOS 13
As a diagnostic exercise, I suggest that you disable some Siri features:
Settings > Siri & Search >
Exit and Force-close the Settings App - then force-restart your iPad. Leave this settings alone for a day of two - but otherwise continue to use your iPad as normal.

Best of Luck to You!
Can you refine and provide greater detail in your description of the problem? “Freezing” can mean many different things to different people.
Please tell us which Apps are affected (noting that information as to Apps that are not affected is also meaningful). When the problem occurs, what is the actual effect, such as complete pause of the entire iPad (e.g., video or sound stops playing, or keyboard input seems to be ignored) or something else?
The more that you can tell us, the more likely it is that we may be able to provide some help.
Thanks for your time.
While I am typing the letters etc suddenly they stop being produced for a few seconds and so I have to go back and retype those lost characters.
When I’m dictating suddenly the words stop being produced for a few seconds then suddenly they all come tumbling onto the screen at once.
when I am playing games my fingers have no effect on the screen.
(A few seconds can mean 10 seconds or more.) I’ve never actually timed it.
Thanks LotusPilot. I have done this and will leave Siri switched off for another 24 hours. The freezing seems to have stopped but I will wait and let you know the results in a couple of days.
Thank you so much.
Thanks Lotuspilot that appears to have done the trick. I will let you know if there is any change. As at 72 my fingers don’t always seem to have the charge or whatever it is to activate the screen.
Again I want to thank you for your very generous time.
Thanks for your answer.
I have restarted it on a good number of occasions. This has never helped.
What is the best options iPad keep from freezing or stoping?
