White screen on iPad mini 6 while playing Stardew Valley

this problem just started today. My screen would suddenly turn all white. I mainly use my ipad mini 6 to play stardew valley. So , I am not quite sure if the app is crashing or my actual device issues. The white screen (blank screen) would stay for a minute or so then it resolves on its own.

Try a forced-restart - as this will often clear an isolated software issue:

If the problem survives the restart, you may have a hardware fault that requires attention. You might be best advised to seek assistance directly from Apple Support - and request a remote diagnostic test. You can contact the Support Team using the Support link at top-right or bottom-left of this page.


Alternatively, you can initiate and manage your support cases from Apple devices using the excellent Apple Support App. If not already installed, the App can be downloaded from the App Store:

You might also visit the Genius Bar at your local Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider (AASP) - where the technicians will be able to offer assistance:

Thank you for the recommendations. The force restart didn’t work. When the screen turns all white, I can still hear the clicking sound when I press the button power button or screenshot sound. I am currently updating the software and hoping that’ll fix it. If not, I will request for the remote diagnostic test to see what is going on.
