I recently received this question from a viewer who watched my video on cleaning your iPad screen.
My iPad does not have much smudging. But the iPad is not allowing me to tap in certain areas.
Here are four tips for dealing with an unresponsive or slow to respond screen.
1.Screen protectors can interfere with taps and with using a stylus. For more on iPad screen protectors see this article.
2. If the iPad is slow to respond to taps, then it could be a lack of memory (RAM). For more on iPad memory and lack of space (RAM) see this article.
3. You can test for unresponsive areas of your iPad screen by using a full-screen calculator or maps app.
4. If you have not shut down and restarted your iPad lately, give that a try.
