Tiny Troubles: What Those White Dots on Your iPad Screen Mean

Spotting tiny white dots on your iPad screen? Don't panic! While alarming, they're often fixable. These dots usually indicate stuck pixels – pixels that are either always on (white) or always off (black).

Before assuming the worst, try a few simple solutions. First, give your iPad a restart. This often resolves temporary glitches. If that doesn't work, try gently applying pressure to the area where the dots appear. Use a soft cloth and avoid excessive force. There are also specialized apps and videos designed to 'exercise' pixels, rapidly cycling them through colors to potentially unstick them.

If the dots persist after these attempts, it could unfortunately indicate a more serious issue with the display itself. In this case, contacting Apple Support or visiting an authorized repair shop is the best course of action. They can diagnose the problem accurately and advise on repair or replacement options. Remember to back up your iPad before seeking professional help!
