iPad crashing opening “Background Noises”

I’ll swipe down to activate background noises while studying in the latest iOS 17.0.2 on an iPad Pro and it’ll freeze all actions even power.

> it’ll usually go back to normal after 10 to 15 sec or it’ll reboot

Has anybody else’s experienced this??

iPad Pro, iPadOS 17

Ok phew. I found the solution. You have to go to Settings, then accessibility, then audio & visual and then toggle “background sounds” to on.


I used background sounds all the time and it kept freezing after the updates. I just figured it out after weeks of restarting and refreshing and all sorts of other things. I hope this works.

Hi Ipadへmouse,


If you haven't done so yet, restart your iPad. This may seem like a fairly simple step, but restarting can correct some issues: Restart your iPad


If the issue continues, try removing Background Sounds from the Control Center then re-add it to see if that helps.


If you need more help, reach out to Apple Support directly so they can look into this with you further. They can be contacted here: Get Support or by calling the most applicable phone number from this list: Contact Apple for support and service.


Regards.
