If you're experiencing slow charging on your iPad after it has been serviced, there are several potential reasons for this issue. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot and improve the charging speed:


1. Use the Original Charging Cable and Adapter:

- Ensure that you are using the original Apple charging cable and adapter that came with your iPad. Other cables and adapters may not provide the optimal charging speed.


2. Check for Debris in the Charging Port:

- Inspect the charging port on your iPad for any dust, lint, or debris. Use a small, gentle brush or compressed air to clean the port carefully.


3. Restart Your iPad:

- Sometimes, a simple restart can help resolve charging issues. Turn off your iPad, wait a few seconds, and then turn it back on.


4. Update iPadOS:

- Ensure that your iPad is running the latest version of iPadOS. Go to Settings > General > Software Update to check for and install any available updates.


5. Reset All Settings:

- If the problem persists, you can try resetting all settings on your iPad. This won't delete your data but will revert settings like Wi-Fi passwords and wallpaper to their defaults.

- Go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings.


6. Check for Background Apps:

- Close any unnecessary apps running in the background. Background processes may affect the charging speed.


7. Check Battery Health:

- Go to Settings > Battery > Battery Health. Check the Maximum Capacity and Peak Performance Capability. If the maximum capacity is significantly reduced, it may indicate a degraded battery.


8. Avoid Extreme Temperatures:

- Charging in very hot or very cold environments can affect battery performance. Ensure that your iPad is in a moderate temperature environment while charging.


9. Use Airplane Mode:

- Enable Airplane Mode while charging to reduce power consumption. Swipe down from the top-right corner to open Control Center, and tap the airplane icon.


10. Contact Apple Support:

- If none of the above steps resolve the slow charging issue, especially if the iPad has just been serviced, it's recommended to contact Apple Support. They can provide assistance based on the specific details of your iPad and the recent service.


Remember that if the iPad has undergone recent service, the issue might be related to the service performed. Apple Support should be able to provide guidance and may recommend additional troubleshooting steps or service if necessary.

It wasn’t charging at all. The service said they fixed the software issue and run all tests and it’s normal. And i got it with 100%charged. Then i used it at home and it’s charging very slowly now. It’s c type to lightning original adapter and cable. I used another apple charger (usb to lightning) but it’s still the same

It sounds as if you need to take the iPad and whatever you're using to charge it back and have them look at it.
