Q: why does screen flicker on ipad air

Hey Joyce189,

I see that you are experiencing an issue with your iPad air’s screen. I have some troubleshooting steps for you that will be useful when attempting to address this issue, and they can be found here:

If you see lines, missing sections, discoloration, or poor image quality

1. Try to restart your device. If you can't restart, force restart your device.
2. If this doesn't work, restore your device.
3. If you still see the issue after you restore, contact Apple Support.
