How to fix a white dot on iPad screen?

The first step to address a white dot on your iPad screen includes performing a restart or a hard reset sequence to check if the dot clears. Consult Apple Support when a stuck pixel persists because trying pixel-fixing applications and touching the affected area might solve the problem.
 
To fix a white dot on your iPad screen:
  1. Restart your iPad: Hold the power button and slide to power off, then turn it back on.
  2. Update iOS: Go to Settings > General > Software Update and update to the latest version.
  3. Check for debris: Clean the screen gently with a microfiber cloth.
  4. Reset settings: Go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings.
If it doesn't go away, it might be a hardware issue, and you should contact Apple Support.
 
White dots come in two primary varieties:
Assistive Touch: Turn off assistive touch by going to Settings > Accessibility > Touch > AssistiveTouch.
Restart your iPad if the pixel or hardware is stuck or dead. If the dot persists, get in touch with Apple Support as there might be physical screen damage.
