Having an iPad can be both fun and useful; you may use it in your free time or you may use it for work. However, to really get the most of your iPad, there are some tips you should be aware of. This article will give you these helpful tips and more.
When you first purchased your iPad, pages loaded quickly. Now, you are noticing your machine is not as snappy in it responses as it used to be. Over time, the installation of data and apps will slow down your iPad. To keep your iPad at optimum speed, periodically review the information and apps you have installed and delete those that are no longer being used. By doing this, your iPad will become snappier in its response again.
Make the most of the "delete all" function that is incorporated within the iPad. For security reasons you can program the tablet to delete all your sensitive data if your password is entered incorrectly 10 times. This is a perfect feature if your tablet has been lost or stolen and you keep extremely confidential details on it.
You can take better pictures by focusing on your subject and improving the metering of the light. All you have to do is tap on your subject and your iPad will focus on this area and meter the light to make your subject more visible. Experiment with this tool to take some artsy picture!
A neat feature in Safari on the iPad is the quick scroll. Many people do not know about this and waste time scrolling by hand up the page to get back to the beginning. All you have to do to get back to the top of any page is to tap on title window at the top.
Get a case or screen protector. If you use your iPad regularly, it is going to show signs of wear and tear, particularly on the screen. To avoid more than is necessary, get a screen protector or a case so that you can keep the screen free from scratches and damage.
When taking pictures, you should use the orientation lock button so the shutter button remains near your thumb instead of shifting to the bottom of your screen. You will then be able to take pictures without shaking when you hold the iPad by its sides. Use an image editor app to rotate your pictures afterward if you need to.
Be sure that you only use official iPad accessories with your iPad. Accessories made by other companies have been shown to slow the device and even cause permanent damage at times. Even though the Apple accessories are more expensive than other options they are cheaper than having to replace your iPad altogether.
Do you notice that if you travel a lot and use your iPad on different WiFi networks, the networks are saved in your iPad? This can be annoying when you try to connect to a place you visit frequently, and you have to search for the one you need through many options. Just go to your WiFi settings, choose the network, and you can make your iPad forget it by clicking the blue arrow and choosing "Forget This Network."
Keep your apps organized with the folder feature. The newest version of iOS allows users to create folders. To do this, tap and hold an app's icon until it starts to move or jiggle. Then, drag the app until it is hovering over another app that you want in the same folder. Now just release. The iPad will automatically create a folder with both app icons inside.
As discussed earlier, iPads are amazing devices that offer a number of benefits to users. Due to its state-of-the-art technology, however, learning to properly operate an iPad takes a little bit of education and learning on your part. By applying everything that you've learned from reading this article you should be well on your way to becoming an iPad master. Good luck!
