Would this menu relate to a webpage - or an App? Something else? Is the iPad/iPhone completely unresponsive, or are you able to otherwise interact with the device? With benefit of more information, specific guidance may be possible.


If your device is completely unresponsive, perform a forced restart:

Force restart iPad - Apple Support

Force restart iPhone - Apple Support
