The Great Escape: Techniques to Evade App-ocalypse

There are two main methods for escaping the app labyrinth and returning to the glorious iPad home screen. Choose your adventure!

Method 1: The Force Awakens (or Upwards, in this Case)

  1. Imagine you're channeling your inner Jedi Master (or maybe just remembering where your thumb usually rests).
  2. Slide your finger firmly but gently up from the bottom edge of the screen. Think of it as parting the digital curtains to reveal the home screen stage.

Method 2: The Button Whisperer (For iPads with a Home Button)

  1. Look for the lone warrior on the front lines of your iPad battlefield: the humble Home button. It's usually a physical button at the bottom center of the device.
  2. Give it a friendly but firm press. This trusty button will catapult you straight back to the home screen.

Bonus Tip: If you find yourself on a runaway app train and can't remember which method to use, just flail your arms around wildly and yell "Homeward bound!" in your best Dorothy voice. There's a 50/50 chance it'll work (and a 100% chance it'll entertain anyone watching).

Still Stuck? Don't Panic!

Maybe you're using a newer iPad model that doesn't have a physical home button. Fear not, grasshopper! There's an Accessibility setting that can help. But that's a story for another time (or a quick Google search away).
