In the hands of a skilled user, an iPad is a powerful, revolutionary device. There are so many uses, though, you probably do not know everything the iPad is capable of doing. This article has tons of information to help you out when using your iPad.
Those iPad apps can be addictive, so keep a tally of how many you purchase. It is very easy to accidentally spend more than you intended on iTunes, for example. The app stores your credit information, so you can just buy, buy, buy with a single click! Because of this, ensure that you don’t spend more than you have.
Watch your currently running apps carefully. Many of the iPad’s apps can run in the background while you do other things. If you want to see what else is running on your iPad, just double-click the Home button. These active apps will show up at the very bottom of your display in a bar. When you are finished with this area, swipe down and the bar will be gone.
Did you accidentally launch a loud app? Muting your volume is as simple as pressing and holding the volume button down. If you find you are in need of the mute function often, you can configure your iPad’s lock button to work as a full-time mute button.
Would you like to see more than 2 lines of text when previewing an email? In your Settings menu, click on Mail, and then find the Preview setting. Change the preview feature to increase the lines you see. This way, you can view more of the email, speeding up your skim-through process.
“Ding!” Does the chiming of your iPad whenever you receive another email drive you crazy? Were you aware that this feature can be disabled? Go to the Settings and select the General tab. Once you get there, select Sounds. In this area, you will be able to adjust your sound settings for NEW MAIL.
For those who have experienced the iPad, there can be no denying how truly incredible it is. But it is likely the iPad can do even more than you realize. Most people do not use the iPad to its full potential. Using these tips will help you use your iPad more efficiently.
