Let’s break down the real causes — and how we fix them fast.

Why iPads & Tablets Stop Working Properly

Tablets are used for years, often for school, work, browsing or streaming — so issues naturally build up. The most common causes include:

1. Touchscreen Not Working Properly

A failing or damaged digitizer can cause:

• Touch not responding
• Ghost touches
• Screen dead zones
• Random screen jumps

Often caused by drops, pressure damage, or internal connector issues.

2. Tablet Not Charging or Charging Slowly

This usually happens due to:

• Faulty charging port
• Loose or damaged connector
• Worn-out battery
• Dirt or debris inside the charging slot
• Power IC (charging circuit) failure

We diagnose these issues in minutes.

3. Tablet or iPad Freezing, Lagging, or Stuck on Logo

Common reasons include:

• Low storage
• Corrupted software
• Faulty updates
• Overheating
• Failing internal memory (NAND/EMMC damage)

We offer full software resets and hardware diagnostics.

4. No Sound / Mic or Speaker Issues

Caused by:

• Water exposure
• Dust blockage
• Flex cable issues
• Audio IC faults (common on older iPads)

5. Tablet Not Turning On

Possible causes:

• Dead battery
• Damaged buttons
• Charging port failure
• Motherboard short
