I've been noticing that randomly the sensitivity on my iPad Air 4's screen will drop (most noticeable when using App Viewer/Switcher). Instead of being able to use a very slight touch to navigate, I have to apply a noticeable amount of force (but nowhere near enough to damage the iPad). This is with both the Apple Pencil and with my finger. When I restart the tablet, the issue goes away and the tablet is fine for a few days before the issue eventually reappears. I noticed this starting right around the end of September/beginning of October, but it seems that the issue is becoming more frequent.

I think this is a software-related issue since it's fixed by restarting. Has anyone experienced anything similar? Are there any settings I need to be checking? I clean the screen pretty frequently (and yes I'm using a screen protector).

TIA!
