For several months now; I encounter a 5 second delay when switching to an open Jep Pro. Obviously we switch between several apps during the course of a flight. It does not matter if I swipe between apps or get to Jep Pro via the home button and screen. When Jep is selected; the wheel turns for 5 seconds. While sometimes just an annoyance; during busier times it is a safety issue. For example switching between content locker to view the meters/feet conversion table and then back to Jep in the descent for [an international] arrival. I've checked around. Every other pilot I've asked is experiencing this. Regardless; I called technical support and they gave me their standard delete and reinstall instructions. I did so and now have moved to a 6-7 second delay. I cannot recall when this started exactly. I will say it was not happening when we started with the current iPad and happened after one of the updates.
B777 First Officer reported the iPad is slow to switch between applications.
