My iPad Air 2 is really slow!!

My iPad worked fine for the past few months, but suddenly it just degraded in performance...... Why is this? I know it’s old, but it used to work like a charm just last month.

iPad Air 2, iPadOS 14

Well.

You have a decent amount of free, internal data storage space left inside of that iPad, so I am not entirely sure why your iPad is slow.

So, Tap on the link below to my iDevice/iOS performance/optimisation user tips link.

Slow iPad on iOS 11, 12 and iPadOS

Try all of these tips and leave each tip active together.

Do not simply try every tip individually, expecting just one tip to be a performance “cure all”.

Many of these tips are designed to work together to help improve overall iOS/iDevice performance.



Best of Luck to You!
