Force Quit Apps

Multitasking lets users simultaneously run apps to quickly switch back and forth between the apps.  Close apps you don't need running as apps running in the background cause the battery to drain at a faster rate.

To Force Quit apps:

1. Press the Home Button twice to activate the Multitasking Bar.
2. Tap and hold any app icon that appears in the Multitasking Bar.
3. When the apps start to jiggle, tap the red minus sign on the apps you want to stop running in the background.  Note-This does NOT delete the app from your iPad.

Screen Orientation / Music Controls

Double-click the Home button (or swipe upward using four fingers) and the multitasking bar appears. Swipe right and several controls appear - Screen Lock Orientation, Brightness, and Music Controls.
