App switcher not working.

I go onto my app switcher and try to press on an application that I already have open. I press on it and the app switcher goes away and I get no response from my iPad and nothing opens up.


is there any solution to this?


Thanks in advance!

If your iPad is not performing as expected, a forced restart may be helpful:


  • On an iPad with a Home button: Press and hold the top button and the Home button at the same time. When the Apple logo appears, release both buttons.
  • On other iPad models: Press and quickly release the volume up button, press and quickly release the volume down button, then press and hold the top button. When the Apple logo appears, release the button.
