ios 7.0.2 lags on ipad mini

Dear people, this is a discussion for everyone.


Ios 7. for ipad mini users, you may have overlooked the smoothness of the IOS software, but what you all are missing is that it lags our ipad mini.


take a look closely at your ipad mini, try some games i.e. candy crush, clash of clan, its not as smooth as before.


when you pinch out to home screen, it is not very smooth either.


maybe try the golf star game too, it is horribly laggy.


erm, apple staff, pls do take note and go and test it out pls. i tot 7.0.2 will fix lag issues but its such a disappointment.

iPad, iOS 7, ipad mini hello.

i have the same problem, ios 6 was running smooth on my ipad mini until i upgraded to ios 7, my games are experiencing too much lag, specially games like nba and infinity blade, ones that took large space on memory. but theres an easy fix for that, just simply turn on reduce motion and increase contrast on accessibility at settings and your ipad mini will function smooth as ios 6 again, it worked on my device. hope this helps on everyone else.

Try to reset the device:


*Device reset*


Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)


1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.


2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.


3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

Sme folks with lag on their iPads after upgrading to iOS 7 reported success with the following.


1. First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.


2. Reset all settings.

Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings

Have you try to disable the parallax effect? It's seems to me, that the response time is a little bit faster. You can also deactivate the new iCloud option Document and Data.


Finally do like me. Restore IOS 6.1.3. In this case if your system tries to update your freshly restored ios 6, fill you iPad! It's the only way I Found to stop the upgrade.
