Hi guys, I’ve made a post about my iPad Pro 10.5 3 years old touch screen not responsive like it suppose to while ago. Well, I’ve done all I could including touch accommodations in settings with no luck. I’m hoping there are other things I can try to fix it, before replacing to a 2020 iPad Pro 11inches. I think this is still pretty new to have this problem..Any suggestions are appreciated, thanks guys.

I had similar problems for nearly a year with my 2017 iPad Pro 12.9

Try cleaning the screen with some rubbing alcohol on a soft cloth. My problems eventually went away, but it’s not clear if the cleanings were the solution.
I’m also a rock climber and we dry our hands frequently with gymnast’s chalk, which may make it less likely that the touch screen will detect a touch. You might also try some hand moisturizer and see if that helps. It seemed to help for me.

I tried all that with no success. It’s time to replace it I guess.
