iPad is frozen on an app, but still functions.

My iPad is frozen on the loading page of an app and we can’t close the app at all. The home button and app switcher aren’t working. Gesture such as turning the iPad off and sliding down for Notification Center and control center work. We had notifications from other apps in Notification Center and tried to press on them, but that didn’t work either. The model is an iPad Mini 2 and it is a slow device and occasionally freezes and such but this has never happened before. Any ideas?
