Copy and paste to other devices
Have you ever typed something on your iPad that you wanted to transfer to your computer, but you didn’t know how? “All you need to do is hold your finger over text, images or links on your iPad,” says Rob Watts, a technology analyst for FitSmallBusiness.com. “Hit Copy on the submenu that pops up on the screen. Then, go to any text field on another Apple device and you can paste that content. This can save you a lot of time and effort.”
Put a picture inside a picture
“If you’re a multitasker, you can watch your favourite movies and TV shows while running your favourite apps,” says Watts. “On many video players such as Netflix and Apple TV, tap the Picture in Picture icon. From there, you can adjust the size and location of your video to your preference.”

Save typing time
According to Jovan Milenkovic, cofounder of KommandoTech, one of the most underrated tips for iPad users is one he just discovered himself a few months ago. “It’s pretty straightforward,” he says. “You can double-tap space to create a period when you’re typing on any iPad!”
Milenkovic says this tiny trick has increased his productivity exponentially. “It changed my life and increased my words per minute on the iPad significantly,” he explains. “If you think about it, that extra second it takes to tap and then space to continue typing adds up. So it’s much more intuitive to just double-tap the space bar, hit space, then continue your sentence. At first, it might feel awkward and take some mental adjustment, but it’s totally worth it.”
