Moving Apps
To move apps around the Home screen (to reorder
them), tap and hold any app icon until the pop-up menu
appears. Now, either select Rearrange Apps or just drag
it. The app icons wobble, and show an X. Rearrange
them as needed. To stop them wobbling, either press the
Home button, or tap Done in the top right corner.
Accessing Siri
Siri is another feature that previously required the Home
button, so needs a new method of activation on the
Home Buttonless iPad Pro. Press and hold the Top
button until Siri appears. When you’re done, tap the Top
button again to close the feature.
The App Switcher
To access the App Switcher screen, either place all five
fingers on the screen and pinch them together, or swipe
up from the bottom of the screen and release when the
apps appear. If you have a Home button, you can also
press it twice. Tap an app to switch to it, and swipe an
app off the top of the screen to close it.
Restart Your iPad Pro
Holding the Top button now gives you Siri, so to restart
your iPad Pro you must press and hold both the Top
button on the right and the Volume down button. This
familiar screen appears, from where you shut down your
iPad with the slider.
Swipe Up for Home Screen
On previous iPads, you could get to the Home screen by
pressing the Home button. As the latest iPad Pros don’t
have a Home button, a new gesture is required. Simply
swipe up from the bottom of the screen and the Home
page is revealed.
Swipe for the App Switcher
You can no longer access the App Switcher with a
double-tap on the Home button, for obvious reasons. The
other two methods outlined above work instead; pinch
with five fingers, or swipe up from the bottom of the
screen until it appears.
