These Shortcuts And Tricks Will Help You Master Your iPad

If you’re new to the iPad, got your first one with last month’s release, or you’re just tired of people asking you for help learning their way around one, this video is full of common tricks and shortcuts that every iPad user should know, from how to take a screenshot to how to quit an application running in the background. We’ve covered some of these shortcuts before, but some of these were new to us.

Thanks to Ciara for sending in the video!

The video is the work of Simply Zesty, a Dublin based PR firm. In it is a rundown of iOS shortcuts, options that are generally hidden deep in the settings that you may want to toggle, and other time-saving options that anyone new to an iPad may not immediately know.

For example, most people know how to set a passcode to access their locked device, but you can also set your iPad to delete its data after 10 failed passcode attempts, keeping your data safe if your tablet is lost or stolen. Already know your way around the iPad? All of this old news to you? What are your favourite time-saving shortcuts? Let us know in the comments below.
