Access Control Centre
To access the Control Centre, swipe in from the top right
of the screen with a single finger. To get rid of it again,
swipe diagonally towards the top left corner.
Opening the Siri Search Screen
On the Home screen, place two fingers on the screen and
swipe down. The Siri Search Screen opens and you can
do a system-wide search across your iPad.
Drag
To drag items around the Home screen, touch and hold
an item for a moment and when the pop-up menu
appears, drag it into the required position without lifting
your finger. Then to drop the item into that location,
simply lift your finger. This works for dragging other items
around the screen too, for example, reordering lists.
Twist to Rotate
In the Photos app, you can rotate a picture by placing
two fingers on it and twisting them left, or right. The
picture then follows the rotation of your fingers, turning
clockwise or anti-clockwise. You can combine this with
the pinch and spread gesture to zoom into, and out of
the photo, while you rotate it.
Pinch and Spread
To pinch or spread, place your thumb and forefinger on
the screen and bring them together or move them apart.
It’s great for zooming into and out of photos and Maps.
Open Dock
To open the Dock, when in an app, swipe up from the
bottom of the screen. Make it a small swipe, or you activate
another feature. Close the Dock by swiping it down.
