My ipad (ios 15) keeps loading whenever i try to enter passcode.

So i was doing my stuff, making a to do list, and then my ipad reseted back to the passcode screen, I tried entering my passcode but whenever i clicked on a number (e . g 4) it typed it 4 exact time at 1 second. (e . g whenever i typed “1” intead of 1 it did “1111”,

After an hour, i turned on my ipad again, this type my passcode worked, but it kept resetting back.

the screen was like this

These are the two basic troubleshooting steps you should perform:

A forced restart of your iPad:

  • On an iPad with a Home button: Press and hold the top (power) button and the Home button at the same time. When the Apple logo appears, release both buttons.
  • On other iPad models: Press and quickly release the volume up button, press and quickly release the volume down button, then press and hold the top (power) button. Only when the Apple logo appears (it might take 15-30 seconds), release that button (ignore all other screens that might appear).


If the issue persists, something could have gone wrong during the latest update procedure.

I would try to install a fresh copy of iOS/iPadOS. To do this, create a full backup of your iPad (1), then restore it to factory settings (you need a computer to perform this step) and, in the end, set it up as new (2).

When done, restore data from your previously made backup (3).


Follow the instructions provided in these support articles:

(2) Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to factory settings – Apple Support

(3) Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from a backup


If the issue still persists, contact Apple Support directly using this link:--> Get Support, or make an appointment and have your device inspected at an Apple Store or AASP (Apple Authorized Service Provider) among this list:--> Apple – Location Selector

After checking it out, they'll give you all the available options.
