Learn How to Reboot the iPad

One of the most essential troubleshooting tip for any device including the iPad is to reboot it. Most people believe that by just suspending the iPad by pressing the Sleep/Wake button is the same as shutting the iPad down, but it’s not.
To properly reboot your iPad, you will first need to power it down by holding the Sleep/Wake until prompted to “slide to power off” by the device. Slide the power button to the right to shut down the iPad.
You will see a circular animation that will display on the screen while the iPad is shutting down. When the screen goes completely off, hold the Sleep/Wake button to power on the iPad. Release the button when you see the Apple logo.

Don’t Waste Time Looking for an App

It’s easy to fill your iPad up with a lot of apps; on the other hand it can also make finding a particular app a problem. Trust me,one of the biggest waste of time ever on the iPad is swiping from a screen full of icons to a screen full of icons searching for a specific app. Take control because you’re the boss so let your iPad do the work for you instead of trying to hunt it down yourself.

There are two different ways the iPad can find the app for your: you can swipe down on the screen to access Spotlight Search or you can also tell Siri to “Open {app name}”.

Save Favorite Websites to the Home Screen

You can save your favorite websites to your home screen by going to the website in the Safari browser, tapping the Share button and choosing “Add to Home Screen” from the second level of buttons that pop up on the screen.
This can also be a great way to store your favorite websites if you’re my type. You can even put the website icons into a folder and put that folder on your dock, creating your own custom bookmarks folder that will always be easily accessible to you every time.

Protect Your Tablet With Find My iPad

If you didn’t enable Find My iPad when you set up your iPad, you should turn it on now. Find My iPad has lots of great features beyond just locating your device: it can be used to wipe the data on your device and reset it to a ‘like new’ condition, which is very handy if you put a passcode lock on your iPad and then forget it, it can play a sound on your iPad, so if you lose it between the cushions of your couch, you can find it, it also put your iPad into ‘lost mode’, which locks the iPad and displays a custom message on it.

Switch Apps With a Gesture


While you can switch apps by double-clicking the home button and using the task screen, you can also skip this step by placing four fingers on your iPad’s display and (without lifting them) dragging your fingers to the left or to the right. This will switch between your most recently opened apps.
In order to perform this operation, you will need to have your iPad multitasking gestures turn on. You can turn them on in the iPad’s settings if they are not already turned on.

The dock is that bar of icons at the bottom that are always present no matter which screen of apps you are on at the moment. You can move apps to the dock just as you would move an app around the screen. You can even put a folder on the dock, making it possible to organize your iPad by putting your most used apps into folders and then putting those folders on the dock.

Let Siri Take Dictation for You

If you don’t like typing on the keyboard, Siri can even take voice dictation from you. The on-screen keyboard has a button that looks like a microphone right next to the space bar. Tap this button to enable voice dictation. Siri will listen to what you have to say and turn it into text.
