Tablets are becoming more and more popular, and the iPad is at the top of the list. Many people, however, aren’t familiar with how to use this piece of technology. Even those that have experience with Apple products often are unaware of a few tricks that could make their experience more enjoyable. This article will outline a few things that you can do to make the most of your iPad.

Think carefully before you decide to jailbreak your iPad. The advantage of jail-breaking your iPad is that it will provide you with lots of additional features. However, jail-breaking your iPad can make it more vulnerable to hackers. Furthermore, jail-breaking voids your warranty from Apple, and it can have a considerable impact on your iPad’s battery life.

If your iPad holds sensitive data, a feature can be enabled that lets you erase all of that data on your device. This is only triggered if a person incorrectly inputs the password 10 times. To set this up, go to Settings. Look under General for Passcode Lock. Then, go to Erase Data.

Watch your currently running apps carefully. Sometimes, the current apps will not be visible in the foreground. If you want to see what else is running on your iPad, just double-click the Home button. A bar shows up near the bottom of the screen that will list currently active apps. Click the home button once or do a downward one finger swipe to close the bar.

If you want to put your calendar on the iPad calendar you should click on the mail and then your contacts and then your calendar. Choose Other under Add An Account. Select Add CalDAV Account and then insert your Google credentials. Once done, click the calendar app. All that you need should be right there.

A great feature of the iPad is the zoom features. You can easily zoom in and out of any website by pinching with two fingers on the screen. This will help you select tiny links or features when they are larger. You can also double-tap on any image or text to enable auto-zoom.

When checking out any new applications, don’t overlook free options. Many times they are just as good as the paid version, although they may include advertisements. This is also a great way to have a type of trial before purchasing the full version that doesn’t have any obtrusive ads on it.

You can use a keyboard with your iPad. Some people love their iPad, but miss the actual keyboard. The good news is that any Apple wireless keyboard will work with it. It will also work with any keyboard that uses Bluetooth. There are some iPads that already have a handy keyboard built in too.

The iPad is actually much more complex than it appears on the surface. Take the information included in this article and use it to make your experience with the machine more enjoyable. Before you know it, your friends, family and coworkers will all be turning to you for advice on navigating the iPad!
