iPad Pro 11" - Touch Screen Unresponsive

Are you using a screen protector on that iPad Pro?

The new 3rd generation iPad Pro models with the new liquid retina displays do not like screen protectors, of any kind, put on the screen.

Touch response is very poor with any screen protector on these new iPad Pros.

I had the same problem. In my case it was the glass screen protector that was causing the problem. I removed the screen protector. Touch screen is now working great.

Try a hard reset of your iPad Pro.

Many iPad Pro users are starting to reply that 12.2 has fixed the touch response problem.

Someone reported that one of the late 12.2 betas, prior to the final release, finally fixed many of the iPad Pro touch screen issue for them.

Found out my Apple Pencil 2 was flawed - the tip. Apple replaced under warranty and new pencil works fine.

Take a look at your Apple Pencil. I was having the same issue after 12.2. Went to Apple Store. They replaced my pencil with a new one. Now I’m back to normal. Check the pencil tip to see if it might be flawed.

I did not have to turn on hold duration after removing my glass screen protector. Still worked with soft touch.

Much appreciated! Solved my sensitivity issues using the tampered glass screen protector. Lucky I saw this before I tried to return the ipad.

Take it off.

Zagg has not been able to solve the new iPad Pro liquid retina screen touch response issues with their widely-known and branded tablet screen protectors, nobody will.

Take it off.

Touch screen response should return to normal. No guarantees though as there is a known unresponsive touch screen issue across all three years of iPad Pro models that I am convinced started withn iOS 12 and is affecting a quickly growing minority of all iPad Pro users.

My iPad Pro is STILL runnung IOS 10.3.3 and my iPad Pro is experiencing no touch issues. None.

Lots of 1st, 2nd and 3rd gen iPad Pro users reporting unresponsive touch screen issues since upgrading to iOS 12.

Best of Luck to You!

It fixes it, but requires to switch on the “hold duration” which requires each touch to be longer than normal. A trade off which I can’t accept.

I have a 3rd Gen 12.9 in IPad Pro with same touch screen non-responsive issue. An hour ago I tried Andrew Ngo’s Recommended fix (turn on “Touch Accommodations”) and all seems much better now.

I had the same issue and just installed ios 12.2. Seems to have fixed it so far!

As I pointed out in my above post.

There are two seperate issues going on with unresponsive touch screen issues related to iPad Pros.

You have maybe, after two months fallen victim to the 2nd unresponsive touch issue problem that is a growing problem as a direct result of an iOS 12 issue/glitch or bug that is affecting ALL year and model iPad Pros.

This particular issue has about 800 affected users here, to date.

There is NO fix/update out, yet, for this particular unresponsive touch screen issue.

This one is a software bug/problem with no, current,resolution.

Look for my feedback link post reply in this thread and post feedback about this to Apple.

I, also, added the option of calling Apple in California to discuss the issue with an Apple customer service employee or series of customer services employees, too!

Best of Luck to You!

iOS 12.2 already to fix this issues

This unresponsive touch issue affects ALL iPad Pro year and modes. NOT just the new 2018 year iPad Pro models.

And that link you supplied is another support site that has no direct affiliation with Apple or Apple monitors or communicates with.

These Apple product support communities are supplied by Apple to allows a combination of Apple products users and some Apple product specialists, assigned to the user to user Apple product support communities, to help out other users here when needed.

There is no one in ANY of these Apple Support Communities from any Apple product teams, ever present, here, in these support communities.

Cognizant or responsible Apple product teams, designers and engineers do not read, nor participate in these, largely Apple product user to user technical support communities.

Cognizant Apple teams do not monitor these Apple user support communities, either!

Apple does not know, on its own accord, of any product issues unless customers return product feedback through Apple’s Website.

The only way to get Apple to, DIRECTLY, listen to anyone is to use their feedback portion of their website.

I supplied all of this info two postings/replies above yours.

The feedback numbers have to be large enough for Apple to look into a possible product issue/s and start implementing a fix for a future iOS update.

The feedback numbers take time to build up to a point where a pattern of similar product issues and comments become apparent to Apple teams and the to specific, cognizant Apple teams.

So, Apple had no way to know to “step in” on this issue until it has actually become a large enough of an issue to warrant Apple’s and specific Apple team’s attention.

Yup,

Look for my feedback link reply in this post and send feedback to Apple.

I kinda of knew your touch screen problems would return .

Once you get this issue, it doesn’t seem to really go away and, currently, there is no fix for this.
