Multitasking has improved immensely in iOS9 - added multi-app multitasking to the iPad. Control Center Swipe up from the bottom bezel to get Control Center Notification Center Swipe down from the top bezel to get Notification Center Slide Over - lets you quickly access a second app so you can respond to messages or mail, add to notes, see photos, or do some other, brief task while still keeping the original, primary app visible and available. Think of it as a side bar that lets you briefly access a second app. Split View Split View doesn't confine the second app to side bar or a brief interaction, and doesn't lock out the first app. It will let two apps run at the same time, persistently, and will give you full access to both of them for the duration. (Split View only for iPad Air 2 because the iPad Air 2 has 2 GB of RAM and a massively powerful Apple A8X processor. Running two apps at once takes more than twice the memory and twice the power, and currently only the iPad Air 2 has those resources to spare.) How do I activate Slide Over? Just like you swipe down from the top bezel to get Notification Center and up from the bottom bezel to get Control Center, you swipe left from the right bezel to get Slide Over. To dismiss it, you swipe from the left edge back towards the right bezel. Both Slide Over and Split View allow you to have two apps on-screen at the same time—a "primary" app and a "secondary" app. The primary app is the one you start with, full screen. The secondary app is the one you bring in that either overlays a part of the screen in Slide Over or takes over part of the screen in Split View.

I keep her busy keeping me organised through my busy day and week ahead. “SIRI also is the technology that powers Search on your iPhone and iPad. And now you can get even more answers when you type in the Search field” I’ve only listed above a few enhancements that I use constantly on my iPad.
