If your iPad is constantly restarting, it could be because of an issue with the software. You can reset it and then clear it. It could be caused by the device being overheated. Make sure it is in a cool place for approximately half an hour , and then return to it.
I owned the iPad Air, and it was constantly intermittently restarting at close to the conclusion of lifespan. It was later discovered that the problem was caused by a malfunctioning application. I have discussed the various tips and tricks that worked in the following article.
What do you do if Your iPad keeps restarting?
There are a variety of fixes which comprise:
Solution 1: Force-Restart (Reset)
The problem may be caused by the software having a minor issue. It is possible to get rid of it by force-restarting.
The force-reboot procedure is dependent on the iPad model.
iPhones that have Home button:
- Press the Home and Power buttons simultaneously.
- Let the two go out at the time that the Apple logo is displayed.
iPads with the Home button:
- Press and let go of the volume Up button repeat the process with the Volume Down button.
- Continue Pressing your Power button for a while until you can see the Apple logo
Things to do after the Force-Restart
Even though the force-restart is supposed to bring your iPad back up and running , this fix could be only temporary. There could be underlying issues that are causing the frequent restarting.
I’ve discussed a few possible underlying issues and the best ways to deal with these issues below.
1. Older Applications
It is possible that you haven’t changed your apps for the past, therefore you could be experiencing issues in a major way.
Here’s how you can update your applications:
- Start your Apple app store. Then go to the [Your Profile icon[Your Profile icon
- Scroll down to view the complete list of updates made
- Click to Update All
2. Failured Applications
You could also be having a problem with a malware-related app. The application that you downloaded before the iPad rebooting issue popped up is likely to be the cause.
Here’s how you can remove it:
- Locate the icon for the app and press it down
- Tap to release
- Tap Delete to verify
3. Poorly set-up settings
It is possible that you have altered the settings on your device and created the issue. If you are aware of the setting you altered then you can simply alter it. If you can’t remember then you’ll need to reset all your settings.
It is important to note that you’ll lose all your saved WiFi passwords as well as Bluetooth devices as a result.
Here’s how:
- Open Settings > General > Reset
- Click Reset All Settings
- Enter your password to confirm your identity.
4. Old Version of iOS
When did you last update iOS? Many issues can be encountered with an older version of the operating system such as the one you’re currently working with. There are two methods to upgrade iOS.
- Here’s the method 1:

Your internet connection will influence the time this iOS updates will last.
5. Clean Your Storage
The reason for the restarting problem could be caused by the iPad storage getting full. After you force restart, search for the applications and files that you no longer require and remove them. I’ve previously discussed the process of uninstalling an app in the past. Here’s how to delete an application’s files:
- Start the Files app
- Browse to the folder in which in which the file is located in.
- Make sure to save the file when you’ve located it.
- Tap Delete
Solution 2. Cool Your iPad
It might be a hot day, and your iPad might have been excessively heated. The iPad could be stuck in the reboot loop due to the heat. Place it in a cool location for about 30 minutes and then return to it.
Solution 3. Recovery Restoration
The process of entering recovery mode is similar to reseting factory settings, but it is more thorough. If a persistent software issue is at fault, using recovery mode can help. However, you’re at risk of losing all your personal data and also several errors if you unplug the device halfway.
Whatever you decide to do, here’s what you should do:
- Start iTunes onto your PC
- Connect your iPad onto your computer via its lightning port.
- You’ll need to click an array of buttons
- Here’s what you can do on iPads that don’t have Home buttons. Use the Power button as well as Volume buttons simultaneously and then move off the slider that turns off power. Hold the Sleep/Wake button until the screen for recovery appears.
- tablets with Home buttons Hold the power button down for 3 seconds and then slide on the power-off slider. Hold the Home button for about 3 seconds and then release until you see the recovery screen.
- Find your handset on iTunes
- Click Restore iPad
Solution 4 4. Utilize Recovery Software
Recovery software is able to fix iPad stuck in an in-boot loop. They’re not all cheap, but spending $20 isn’t too bad is it?
iOS system recovery software is alternative options to enter recovery mode. What’s amazing is that they’re much more extensive, and the majority of them won’t cause data loss .
The most well-known recuperation tools available includes Dr.Fone.
Here’s how you can utilize it to solve the iPad problem that keeps restarting:
- Download and run Dr.Fone’s system repair software.
- Make use of an lightning cable for connecting your tablet to your computer.
- Choose System Repair from the options offered.
- In one of the repair alternatives, choose the normal repair. This will reset your settings but not erase your data.
- The system will display the available options for firmware. It is based on the model of your iPad.
- Choose a file and click Download.
- After the download completes and is verified Once the download is complete, select to start Repair.
When the repair process is completed, your iPad will then restart.
If your iPad does not stop automatically You can try your Advanced Repair option. It is important not to back up your device prior this, as it could result in the loss of all data,
Solution 5: Go into DFU Mode
Invoking DFU mode is only for the most complicated software issues. This is the only option when even a restoration as well as using tools for recovery fails to perform.
Be aware you must be aware that entering DFU mode is risky If you’ve jailbroken your device before. It could cause bricks to iOS. Don’t unplug your iPad halfway because you may be stuck in the Blueor black Screen of Death.
If you’re still curious Here’s how to start DFU mode:
- Start iTunes on your PC
- Attach your device to the computer
- You’ll have to press a series of buttons
- Here’s how to use HTML0 for iPads with no the home button:Make that your device is off, then hold on the Power button approximately 3 minutes. While you hold your Power button press your Volume down button. Repeat this process for approximately 10-seconds (if you notice the Apple logo on the screen, you’ve held them far too long). Then, release the On/Off button , but hold it holding the volume down button. You’ve entered DFU mode if the screen remains black.
- Here’s how to use HTML0 on iPads using the home button:Make that your device is off, and then hold the button that is On/Off for about 3 minutes.
