My ipad(7th generation 128 gb) is stuck in a bootloop.

My ipad is stuck in a boot loop. Ive tried restoring it but its still stuck and now im afraid i lost everything for no reason because its still bootlooping. How do i get it to stop? Will i have to go into the store to have them fix it? Will it cost money?

iPad, iPadOS 15

Hey Cheekykoopa,


Were you able to follow the steps in the guide you recently viewed? In that process, choosing "Update" should help to reinstall the software and keep your data in place. If it is unable to complete that process, it will restore the device instead. Restoring does erase all data and return your iPad to factory settings. Here's the link, just in case: If your iPad won't turn on or is frozen


If that doesn't help, you'll want to get your iPad in for service. To look into your available options and possible cost, start here: iPad Service and Repair

Take care.
