There are multiple ways to fix an unresponsive iPad. You can use hardware buttons to restart the device or use the settings option if you can access it.

The basic restart process won’t delete your data or settings. All you need to do is press the Home button. It is located in the top right corner of the iPad.

If your iPad does not have a Home button, press and hold the on/off button and one volume button simultaneously until a slider appears at the top of the iPad screen.

Move this slider from left to right to turn off the iPad. To restart, hold the on/off button until the Apple icon appears. In case, the standard restart process does not work, you can try a hard reset.
