At least once a day while browsing in atomic browser, my iPad goes crazy and start opening different apps.....keyboard popping up and down lolololololololol I'm thinking it's a bug in the atomic browser but can't be sure. It happened twice already.....today and yesterday. Both times while in the browser. When I click on the home button when all of this happening, it will bring me back to the browser........kind of funny, anybody else get this?
 
The power of Christ repels your iPad. Douse it in holy water and it will no longer function on it's own...
 
1. Press app until it wiggles.
2. Press X in the upper left hand corner of the app.
3. Press home button.

Problem fixed. :)

No it's a hardware glitch. Someone else already reported this happening when typing. You'll need to exchange it.

Yep, iPad has a faulty digitizer. Call Apple support or book a genius appointment. Please inform them exactly of the issues you are experiencing and don't hang up until they say you can. Also, be prepared to exchange your iPad and check for wasser damage in every hole - I advise you examine and explore all holes deeply.

This is called "Phantom Touch" and is a known problem with some iPads. Mine had that problem and I know of several others with the same problem. Call support and they will fedex you a new one. It is a hardware problem so don't bother playing with reboots, etc. - I wasted a bunch of time with that until I finally called support.
 
^ Really? This sucks.....this is my second exchange. Seems like the 1800 my apple is closed. I'll call tomorrow. I also recorded the episode on my phone......I'm covered. Still sucks though
