iPad Basics

Security and general settings

Once you're more familiar with the iPad, you may want to take some time to review and customize your device's settings. Settings control everything from the way your iPad works to the data it shares with apps and other devices. You can open Settings by tapping the icon on your Home screen.

Opening Settings

As you can see below, Settings gives you easy access to many different things, including settings for your apps, email accounts, and iCloud. To view or edit your options, tap an item in the left pane. In this lesson, we will focus on:

• General: From here, you can set security options, download software updates, and more.
• Privacy: From here, you can manage your privacy settings.
