Elegant and intuitive interface.
You know how to use iPad from the first time you pick it up. That’s because the revolutionary Multi-Touch interface in iOS was designed for your finger. And the simple, beautiful Home screen is the easiest place to start. From built-in apps to over 140,000 iPad apps and games available from the App Store. From making a FaceTime call to editing a video with iMovie. Everything you touch is easy, intuitive, and fun.
Over 200 new features.
The features included with iOS 5 make iPad even more powerful, innovative, and fun to use. Here are just a few.
Newsstand
Newsstand keeps your favorite newspaper, magazine, and journal subscriptions in one convenient place. As new issues become available, they automatically go on display. Running low on reading material? Tap the Store button to start shopping for new titles in the App Store.
Messages with iMessage
Talk it up with fellow iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch users running iOS 5. iMessage on the large iPad display is text messaging made beautiful — and free over Wi-Fi.* If words aren’t enough, you can send photos, videos, locations, and contacts, too.
Notification Center
iPad works with your apps to let you know about missed messages, calendar invitations, friend requests, and more. New notifications appear discreetly at the top of your screen — without interrupting what you’re doing. And you can see a summary of recent notifications when you swipe down from the top of any screen.

Safari
With iOS 5, it’s even easier to see the web. Tap Safari Reader to read articles without ads or clutter. Add article links to your Reading List. And keep multiple web pages open at once and quickly switch between them with tabbed browsing.
Twitter Integration
Twitter is integrated into iOS 5, so you can sign in once under Settings and begin tweeting directly from Safari, Photos, Camera, YouTube, and Maps. You can even start typing a friend’s Twitter handle and iOS will autocomplete the rest from your contacts.
AirPlay Mirroring
AirPlay Mirroring lets you wirelessly stream whatever’s on your iPad screen to your HDTV via Apple TV.1 So everyone in the room can see what you’re seeing. Even when you rotate iPad from portrait to landscape or zoom in and out.

Hardware and software made for each other.
Because Apple makes both the iPad hardware and the operating system, everything works together seamlessly and intelligently. This makes it possible for built-in apps and apps from the App Store to take advantage of the iPad hardware. So Multi-Touch, the accelerometer, the three-axis gyro, accelerated graphics, and the powerful processor are always in play when you’re surfing the web, watching movies, gaming, and going from app to app to app.
Multi-Touch technology.
You already know how to use iPad, because you use the most natural pointing device there is: your finger. Nobody does Multi-Touch better than Apple.
Up to 10 hours of battery life.
The A5 chip is incredibly power efficient, which means the iPad battery — and all the web surfing, email checking, movie watching, and more — lasts up to 10 hours on a single charge.2
Instant On.
With Instant On, iPad springs to life the second you touch the Home button. And when you open the iPad Smart Cover, iPad wakes up automatically. That’s Instant On with a colorful twist.
Safe and secure by design.
iOS is highly secure from the moment you turn on your iPad. All apps run in a safe environment, so a website or app can’t access data from other apps. iOS also supports encrypted network communication to protect your sensitive information. To guard your privacy, apps requesting location information are required to get your permission first. You can set a passcode lock to prevent unauthorized access to your device and configure iPad to delete all your data after too many unsuccessful passcode attempts. And in case your iPad is lost or stolen, Find My iPad allows you to locate it on a map and remotely delete all your data.3 When you get it back, you can restore everything from your last backup.

It comes with built-in parental controls.
Parental controls built into iOS help you manage just about everything your child can do on iPad. Set custom restrictions for Safari, Camera, FaceTime, Game Center, YouTube, Location Services, and more. Even manage access to stuff you’ve already purchased from the iTunes Store and App Store.

Ready for business.
iOS works with Microsoft Exchange and standards-based servers to deliver over-the-air push email, calendar, and contacts. iOS protects your data by encrypting information in three separate areas: in transmission, at rest on the device, and when backed up to iTunes. You can securely access private corporate networks through industry-standard VPN protocols. And companies can easily deploy iPad across an enterprise using configuration profiles.

Accessibility built in.
iOS comes standard with a wide range of accessibility features that help people with disabilities experience everything iPad has to offer. For example, the built-in VoiceOver screen-reading technology allows those who are blind or have low vision to hear a description of the item they’re touching on the screen. iOS also offers out-of-the-box support for over 30 wireless braille displays and many other accessibility features, such as dynamic screen magnification, playback of closed-captioned video, white on black text, and more.
