What to do before fixing iPad restarting?
Before proceeding to the steps to fix the constant reboot issue on your iPad, we suggest you do some advance preparation.

Actions you can take with your iPad if it keeps restarting
There are certain executions that you can do that are simple and practical to solve the problems of restarting your iPad, here are some of them.
What to do if your iPad restarts by itself while connected?
- Clean the iPad charging port.
Prevent lint, dust, grease, or other external components from fouling your charger’s charging input and pin. These little components that are everywhere could be affecting the electrical connection and also a full charge issue on the device.
- Change the wire.
If you keep the cable of your iPad for a long time in the electrical source without using it, it would damage it internally, and all the connection fiber. That is why it is recommended to disconnect it when you do not use it, and in such a case, buying a new one could help you solve the problem.
iPad keeps restarting itself
- Force restart your iPad
The forced restart is only and exclusively when necessary, since it is like unplugging a PC without performing a normal shutdown process. It should be noted that this option is built into the device in special cases such as constant reboots, for no apparent or reasonable reason.
In this case, what you should do is press the “Power” button and the “Low Volume” button at the same time, until the Apple logo appears.
- Update or remove some apps
If your iPad has outdated applications and they are not compatible with the latest versions, it will bring you defects and errors. This will cause your iPad to restart, so check for updates, or uninstall apps you don’t use on your device.
- Reset to factory settings
A valid and safe solution is to restore the iPad device to its factory settings, since this will eliminate the problems and details that you present. So go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Settings, this method will not erase any personal data on the device.
