Hi there!


We're glad you've reached out through Apple Support Communities for help with this behavior you're experiencing since updating your iPad. Let's get to the bottom of it together.


So that we understand correctly, please let us know more about what's going on. Is this occurring when you attempt to swipe a notification on the Lock Screen, or does it happen when viewing notifications in Notification Center in any app or on the Home Screen?


If you haven't already tried restarting your iPad, let us know if the issue persists after doing so. Here's a guide with the recommended steps for a standard restart:


Restart your iPad - Apple Support


If the issue persists, let us know if you're experiencing any similar unpredictable touch behavior at other times, such as when using apps or taking any other specific steps.


Have a great day!
