Wallpaper:

You can easily alter the background of your iPad with screens called ‘Wallpapers’. This will add a personalized look to your iPad instead of sticking with the default picture. You can certainly make your own wallpaper by using the drawing tool and saving your creation as a file. Or you can take a picture and upload it the same way. However, if you visit the app store you can find a very large variety of HD wallpapers to choose from!

Brightness:

If you are having a hard time viewing your screen and would like to either increase or decrease the brightness this is easily adjusted! To set your iPad’s brightness go to settings then Brightness and Wallpaper. From there it is recommended that you set your brightness level around 25-30% so you preserve batter energy.

Games:

If you are a strategy and game lover you can easily search and find a multitude of fun and exciting entertainment. You’ll have to register with Apple’s Game Center or use your Apple ID to sign in. This is a great way to connect with friends online or play solo as you’d like!

Cases:

The best way to keep your iPad safe from damage and from getting dirty is to purchase a case. Cases come in a variety of colors, materials, and thicknesses. If your family has more than one iPad in the home it will be easy to distinguish which iPad belongs to who. Try out a snazzy bright purple color or even a real leather iPad case! The options and combinations are abundant!

Password protected:

If you’d rather your iPad not be used or tampered with that is totally up to you! Many people use passwords to assure that their valuable information is protected. If you’d like the extra privacy all you need to do is go to Settings>General>Pass code Lock>Turn pass code On> then enter 4 digits. Make sure to pick something you’ll remember but will not be too easy for a stranger to guess!

Applications:

One of the best parts of having an iPad is gaining access to all the free and premium applications available! There are applications out there for nearly everything! If you need to check the weather, see that breaking news, check your mail, or even watch a movie, the iPad application store has you covered!
