We live in a world where “design” is shorthand for “the more bells and whistles the better.” That’s why, when you take a look at most tablet devices, they’re positively bristling with buttons, ports, switches, keys, and other operable knickknacks. Ah, but now take a look at your iPad, which, by contrast, has just a few physical buttons (especially the iPad Pro). That minimalist design is a sight for sore eyes in today’s world, but it leads to a question: If the iPad has just a few operable buttons, how are you supposed to operate the darn thing? It’s a great question, and this chapter provides the answer by giving you a big-picture tour of your iPad. You learn what those buttons are there for, and you learn perhaps the most important iPad skill: how to use the remarkable touchscreen.
