I have a brand new iPad Pro that ghost types? I bought a brand new iPad Pro that arrived right before the lockdown in March. Within a few days or it’s arrival, it started ghost typing. I haven’t been able to get to an Apple store so it’s been useless. It’s brand new, not refurbished and the screen isn’t damaged. I paid a lot of money for a defective iPad and I’ve been using my old one that isn’t so sensitive until I can get a to a store. I don’t live near a store and I don’t want a bunch of back and forth. Any suggestions?

Glitchy iPad - ghost in the machine?! Hi there, I’m having some issues with my iPad. It has randomly started glitching as if someone else is tapping apps. When I try to enter text or numbers the ghost in the machine takes over and enters uuuuummmmiihhhhh or whatever - big string of rubbish. I’ve tried resetting - sometimes works for an hour or so. Last night I restored it back to as if it was brand new device - totally wiped it. Now it’s doing it again: enlarging items on screen when watching a movie, switching between apps by itself, typing rubbish. Any ideas what could be wrong and how to fix it? As far as I know it has not been dropped or anything. It’s in a protective case. Thanks

I have read many articles about it and none of them have helped. Is there any way i can fix this? (P.S. It runs iOS 9.3.6)
