iPad 10.5 touchscreen unresponsive

You try Settings > General > Assessibilty > Touch Accomodation > Off? In Settings > General > Assessibilty > Hold Accomodation > Off?

I’ve had iPad 10.5 pro 512 GB Wi-Fi cellular for over a year now. I don’t use it for games or any applications demanding high processing. Just for reading articles from websites like New York Times and watching video news like Bloomberg TV for example. Up to approximately June 2018 I have been very happy with the performance. I have not had a single issue. Multitasking was working perfectly. Browsing the web with multiple tabs open, having Twitter window open and a video in a separate window was a normal daily experience. Pure pleasure to use. Then since June 2018 it has started gradually to be less responsive to the touch, freezing for one or two seconds. After restarting (home and power button) it works as it used to be but soon it goes back to those periods of reduced responsiveness. This issue also demonstrates itself in abandoning commands initiated by the user, for example when you swipe your finger from the bottom of the screen up to open the ‘switch between apps‘ mode it quits halfway. It appears to be in my opinion OS update related.

I’m currently dealing with Apple support over this but no resolution yet. If you are still under warranty I would keep going back to them.

its a horrible issue that needs to be sorted.

My iPad 12.9 2017 with very similar issues has had the problem from from new so unfortunately I don’t think this issue is as simple as third party displays.

Im still talking to Apple about mine to try and find a solution, if you find my thread on that and follow it I will update when I know more. Maybe they will find something useful for other people.

I’m experiencing the same exact issue. I’ve had this iPad Pro 12.9 2nd generation only 6 months, and already had it replaced. Now, I’ll be going back again. My 1st generation Pro never had this issue, nor did any of the other iPads that I’ve owned...since the very first one came out. Really frustrating.

How much gigs is your iPad Pro? I have iPad Pro 10.5 Wifi with cellular, go into Settings > General > Assessibilty > Click Touch Accomodations > Hold Accomodations > Off. About Assurion, they mostly have refurbished devices, never brand new.

I have the same problem. I have long suspected that these types of issues are direct result of upgrading the system software. As an example to the truth of my theory; I had a perfectly working iPhone4 for SIX Years before upgrading to a 6plus. I manged that by no longer updating after iOS 5.0 was released. If you take into consideration the rate tech advances these days, in my opinion, trying to run the new software on old hardware is like trying to run windows 10 on a pc built for XP. Yes, it meant after a couple years the new apps didn’t work with my device. It still functioned as a phone though and could do most of what I needed it to do. Unfortunately, I didn’t realize how much time had passed when I did the last update on my current iPad. To make matters worse I have since downloaded new apps and will loose all progress on them if I revert to the previous saved iOS. Buying Apple (at a premium) was meant to be an Investment in a product that would Last. I would not invest nearly $1300 on a device that is designed to stop working properly after just 2 years. UGH... Pardon my rant.

My suggestion:

1. Copy all your photos to a PC.

2. Rest to factory settings.

3. Do Not update Ever again.

In in the end you will loose some of your data and games but Save Your Device. Which is more valuable?
