Best iPad Tips and Tricks
Booby-Trapped Data
If your iPad is holding much of your data and you are afraid that what if your
device is stolen/lost, then your data is in danger. Don’t worry as you can enable the
booby trap. Just head to Settings -> Touch ID & Passcode and enable erase data.
This will erase all your data when the wrong password is entered more than 10
times. Also, you can filter what features can be accessed by the user when your
iPad is locked.
Secret Trackpad
The iPad comes with a secret iPad. Yes, you just need to enable it and we will tell
you how. Open the App in which you want to use the trackpad. Touch the
on-screen keyboard with your two fingers. Now the keyboard will become the
trackpad. The cursor will move along with your finger.
Text Shortcuts
If you use some words frequently, you can set their shortcut in
Settings -> General -> Keyboards. Here you can set the shortcuts as per your need. Then you can just type and send the shortcut, and your full set text will be sent.
Floating Keyboard
The keyboard on the iPad takes a lot of space and sometimes kinda irritates.
However, you can resize the keyboard and use it as a floating keyboard. You just
need to press and hold the keyboard icon on the bottom left and then slightly
move your finger to float. Now you can position the keyboard as per your
preference. Also, to get back to normal you just need to pinch out the floating
keyboard.
You can turn on/off what you have seen in the share menu. For that, you just need
to click on the share button from an app. Then you just need to slide right and
choose more. You will see the list of features that can be enabled/disabled.
Attach All Types of Files in Mail
If you want to insert the files in the mail, you just need to press and hold on to the
empty area of the message. Now select the location/file type you want to upload
on your mail. Moreover, you can also directly scan documents or insert sketches
directly in the mail.
Kids Control
You might have kids at your place and you don’t want them to access your iPad or
limit their access to apps and time. You can use the screen time for the app communication and time limits for child Apple ID. Moreover, you can use the
Content & Privacy Restrictions to block various contents.
Lock Down the App
Sometimes you have to give the smartphone to your nosy elders or younger
siblings. But if you don’t want them to interfere in any other app that you have
allowed them to use. Then you can enable Guided Access, this will limit their usage to one single screen/app and will allow you to disable some features/parts of the screen.
Control Camera Focus
If your device is not focussing correctly, then you can tap on the correct object or
area. Then the camera will automatically refocus and re-meter the light intensity.
This will fix the camera focus issues.
