I have turned off snap to grid in the pop up menu at the bottom but it is still functioning.  
When I move sketches I can’t place them accurately because they are snapping out of position.

Can I disable the snap to grid any other way so that it is actually turned off?

@Johnmartin  
If you have not done so already, while awaiting further help, it may be worth trying closing S3D as per Apple directions;

Alternatively Power Off your iPad and then try again.

Experience has lead to closing all Apps properly at the end of each session, may be worth consideration?
