ipad takes screenshot on Lock Screen when swiping up to Home Screen

If my iPad Pro has been unused for some time (e.g. first thing in the morning), swiping up from bottom center does not go to the Home Screen but instead takes a screenshot. I guess somehow it thinks I am touching the bottom left corner. This first started happening to me in one of the iPadOS 16 betas, it's still happening in 16.1. Anybody else experience this?

iPad Pro, 16

Hello LaFong9,


We understand that your iPad Pro is taking a screenshot instead of going to the Home Screen when you swipe up from the bottom center. By chance, have you tried restarting your iPad to see if that helps? This may seem like a simple step, but can often resolve several issues.

Hello LaFong9,


Thanks for verifying.


Now please verify you are on a full version of iOS, and not on beta.


  • Go to Settings  > General > Profiles & Device Management. Any profiles there?


If there are, deleting them and updating should bring you to a full release version if you are still on beta.


If you are already not on beta, please contact Apple Support:

Thanks.
