Yes, the cracked screen could be the cause. It could be activating the digitizer (touch sensing component).

Update

Yes, you'll need to replace the digitizer. If the unit is not under warranty, it is possible to do it yourself, or you can have a shop do it.

If the digitizer is cracked this could most certainly be causing this jumping. Have you ever had the screen replaced before? Another problem that we find is after a repair if the digitizer is not re-taped properly after a repair.

Sounds like the ribbon is bent causing it to jump, this could be from the cracked screen the only thing to do is to get the screen fixed and see if this resolves it.

My mums iPad has these anti smash device called ibalz and these were pressing on the buttons and causing that problem, I took them off and that rectified the problem.

However if you have a cracked screen that too can cause the same problem.

If you can't afford to get it fixed, anything pressing on the cracked area like a protective casing can cause it to go erratic.

Only fixing the screen can fix that problem.
