By Heather Eisternam


When used with skill, an iPad can revolutionize how you are able to accomplish many tasks. However, it's important that time is spent on learning all there is know about the iPad. Read below to optimize the use of your iPad.

Think seriously of purchasing one of the external keyboards available for your iPad. If you need to type a lot while on your iPad, an external keyboard will save lots of time when you need to type documents or emails. They are usually connected wirelessly and they're simpler to use versus the iPad's onscreen keyboard.

If you want to browse a new web page without losing track of what you were browsing before, use the tabbed browsing feature. When in Safari, tap and hold a URL to see a popup menu. In this menu, you'll be able to get links opened in new tabs.

Google Maps offers a Street View feature. Search until you see a red pin on the map. Once you do this, hit the pin and then the white and red icon. This will load your iPad's Street View feature.

To go to your recently-used and running apps, double-click on the home button to open a row of apps at the bottom of your screen. Choose the app you need to go to by tapping on it. If you want to return to your previous app, simply do the same thing again.

Changing your brightness to fit the room or your needs is essential. You can quickly and easily adjust this in your Settings menu using the Brightness option. Not only will you save energy, you will also save your eyes from the strain of looking at a very bright screen.

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. Increase the number of lines listed. It will be easier to go through your emails if you can eliminate the unimportant ones right away.

Do you ever find you want to take a quick screenshot on your iPad? It is really very simple to do. Just hold the home and sleep button simultaneously. You will then find the photo in your normal photo album.

Have you ever wanted to take a quick screenshot before? Doing so is actually quite simple. Press down on the home button, and then also press down on sleep/wake. When you see a flash, you will know that a screenshot was taken. You screen shots are saved automatically, so you will not need to worry about making sure to save them afterwards.

A screen protector to use with your iPad is a wise purchase. Basically, it is plastic that goes over the screen. The level of protection that this offers can save you a lot of wear and tear on your device. This small purchase will go a long way in keeping your iPad in mint condition.

Shortcuts let you send messages quickly. One shortcut is to double tap the space bar to enter a period and space after a sentence. Doing this means you no longer need to do it manually every time.

The iPad cloud function is very helpful for people who use the Internet a lot. Use the cloud to store things without taking up valuable space on the device itself. Store your content on the device and iCloud if it is very important to you.

If you are an iPad user you no doubt love it. Learn all that you can to make the most of iPad in your daily life. By heeding the information found above, you will be ready to take full advantage of what the iPad has to offer.
