Videos (like YouTube) fast forward or backward by itself

Hi, I have been having an issue where my videos fast forward and backward by itself. For example when in YouTube it randomly starts happening, first by bringing up the pause button, as if I touched the screen (I did not) and then most times a few seconds later it fast forwards or backwards on its own like 20-30 seconds. It’s quite annoying. I have noticed on other videos as well, so may not be YouTube.


Yes I have updated my software, and yes I’ve restarted my iPad several times. This has been going on for months now.


Thank you!

iPad Air, iPadOS 14
