An App Is Frozen

It’s rare, but sometimes the iPad seems to freeze when you’re running an app, and your iPad’s screen becomes unresponsive to your touch. The fix is quite simple—just press the Home button and you’ll quit the app. If the app doesn’t quit, try pressing and holding the Home button for five to ten seconds. If the program continues to misbehave after you restart it, you may want to check for updates to the app or even uninstall it. Updating and uninstalling apps are covered in Chapter 10.
