iPadOS 14 Possible Fixes

  • Restart the iPad: Most issues can be resolved by restarting your iPad. The users need to hold the side power button and the volume down button simultaneously until they see just an Apple logo on the screen to restart their iPads.
  • Quit the application: Sometimes just closing and opening the application again can resolve the issue. Users can double-tap the home button or swipe up from the bottom on the screen to launch the app switcher, depending on the iPad model they have. Here they just have to swipe up on the application they want to close. Open it again from the home screen and it should be working normally.
  • Emptying Excess Storage: Sometimes when the iPad’s storage is about to finish and this can cause certain issues. Users can offload this data on iCloud and free up some space on their iPad to try and fix the issue.
  • Downgrade from iPadOS 14: If the problem continuously persists and there aren’t any fixes, users can opt to downgrade their iPadOS version. This is only a possibility if Apple is still digitally signing the earlier versions of iPadOS.
  • Factory Data reset: The last and final option for any user would be to completely erase all files and factory reset their iPhone. They can back up their phones before doing this and restore their iPhone with that back up after resetting it.
