IPad screen freeze in ios7

When I'm using gestures, swiping from app to app in multitasking, or pinching the screen to return to the home screen my ipad freezes. The only way to get it unstuck is to reboot. This happens constantly since upgrading to ios7. Never happened before that.
What is the issue?

Yes, we all know how to get out of the situation by forcing a restart, but what is the problem causing the freezing?
Perhaps the bug will be fixed someday.
I have been experimenting. Go to Settings>General>Accessibility>Reduce Motion. Turn Reduce Motion to ON.
I played around with Pinching to Home Screen from different apps and so far no freeze. Swiping between apps never caused the freeze for me. I have several screen shots of freezes, BTW.

  • My iPad screen freezes and will not switch off for at least 5 mins?

    my ipad screen freezes and will not turn off or  function for at lease  5 mins then just closes down

    Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank then power ON again in the normal way.] It is 'appsolutely' safe!

  • Ipad screen freezes while listening to music

    this problem has occurred several times since i upgraded to IOS5 and basically when i am listening to music and want to change playlist or genre,etc... the screen freezes and it will not let me change to what i selected.Whatever i'm listening to that's it unless i go and restore ipad to it's original settings and then it works well until down the road it decides to freeze and must perform restore again.
    Please help.Thx.

    Ok,i am replying to my question and i have found the solution!
    I had set my auto lock to never and when i changed the auto lock to 15 minutes all my problems went away.It's been a week and my problem with the screen going black and not beign able to make any changes while listening to the music app has not come back.
    Hopefully whomever reads this and has the same problem just follow my example and you should be fine.
    Good luck

  • My ipad screen freezes repeatedly

    When web browsing my ipad screen locks up often.  Restarting does not correct the problem.

    By restart do you mean reset?
    Reset: Press and hold both Sleep/Wake and Home buttons until the Apple logo appears.
    If the reset does not fix things, try to restore your iPad:

  • When i plug my ipad2 in to the computer and the ipad screen freezes

    help

    Please tell me that it has NEVER been jailbroke.  If it hasn't been, here are some standard repair procedures:
    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

  • IPAD screen freeze

    I can't use the screen or any button to control my IPAD. Could you tell me what can i do to resolve this problem ?

    Doing the reset is a common fix, so any time your device is acting up, giving it a reset is the first thing to do.
