Common Issues
iPad Air
If you own an iPad Air, you likely take it with you nearly everywhere you go. Its super lightweight design and impressive battery life are the ultimate device for work, school, and play. Unfortunately, the one downside of the tablet being so portable is its susceptibility to liquid damage caused by spills, drops, and rain.
Just because your iPad Air went for a swim, doesn’t mean it’s done for. A majority of the time, iPads aren’t impacted by minor spills and rain; however, if your device was submerged in water, it will likely need serviced by a professional repair team.
While Apple’s iPad Air has some degree of water resistance, it’s not entirely waterproof. Over time, regular wear and tear impact the device’s ability to fight off water damage. If you think your tablet might be suffering from water damage, carefully follow these steps to minimize damage to the device.

Over time, batteries inevitably hold their charge less effectively, but if you find yourself frequently in search of an iPad charger, it may be time to consider your options. Common signs of tablet battery issues include:
If you’re experiencing any of the above battery problems, consider troubleshooting options or battery replacement services.
Before opting for an iPad Air battery repair, try the following troubleshooting tips in an effort to squeeze every last bit of battery life out of your tablet.
When you’re on the go without a charger and need to extend the life of your iPad Air, try enabling Low Power Mode. This battery saving feature reduces the amount of battery your iPad consumes until you’re able to charge it to 80% or turn the device off. This setting limits the capabilities of some features and apps to save battery life.
In recent years, Apple rolled out a Battery Health feature that allows users to assess the health of their Apple devices’ batteries easily. If a battery is past its prime, a notification will appear under Battery Health suggesting it’s time for service. To navigate to this setting, go to Settings > Battery > Battery Health.
Another great way to extend the life of your battery is assessing the apps that drain your battery significantly. To check which apps are the biggest battery suckers, navigate to Settings > Battery. Then, tap on the columns in the calendar to see which apps used the most battery during that period of time. In addition to limiting time in those apps, be sure that you force close all of your apps regularly to avoid background activity.

With its thin, lightweight design, those on-the-go quickly adopted the iPad Air. With the ability to easily tote the tablet from point A to point B, it’s no wonder the Apple iPad Air is prone to wear and tear, especially cracked screens.

By equipping your tablet with the necessary protection, you can significantly reduce your chances of needing an iPad Air screen replacement.
Unfortunately, the only solution to fixing a cracked iPad Air display is replacing the screen, but if your screen is causing other issues like glitching, flickering, or going completely blank, try the following troubleshooting tips in an effort to remediate the issue.
If your iPad Air flickers and then goes entirely blank, it may be impacted by a well-known issue that affected a limited number of 3rd generation iPad Air devices. Fortunately, Apple has put together a service program to fix impacted tablets free of charge. Contact Apple Support for details on this problem if you think your tablet may be affected.
It’s extremely common for customers to visit CPR thinking that their iPad Air screen is shattered, when in fact, it’s just their screen protector. Before taking your iPad in for repair, be sure to try removing the screen protector in the off chance that the tempered glass is cracked rather than your tablet’s display.
If your iPad screen is flickering, several things could be causing the issue. To begin, try restarting your iPad and checking for software updates. If these steps don’t work, take note if the flickering occurs when using a specific app. If it is, the app may have a bug, need to be updated, or simply require a force quit.
iPad Air screen repairs can be an expensive, timely service. Weigh your options to ensure you decide on the service with the best price and fastest service. The cost will vary significantly based on which generation of iPad Air you own, where you go for repair, and the quality of the replacement screen.
If you have Apple Care on your tablet, contact Apple Support for information on screen replacements. Unfortunately, getting your screen replaced through Apple typically requires you to ship your tablet to their repair center, which leaves you without your device for at least several days.
