iPad Tips and Tricks : Use Spotlight to Find Things

Spotlight is the search screen that you access by hitting the Home button when you are on the  first  screen  of  apps.  It  has a  search  field  at  the  top.Start  typing  and  it  begins  to populate the list with things on your iPad, like apps, contacts, and appointments.

 To take this a step further than the regular iPad user did, go into Settings and tap on the General tab. Hit the Home item in the fourth section. That screen lets you choose what your Home button  does.  If  you  choose  Search  Results  at  the  bottom  you  can  tell  the  OS  what  to search when typing into the Spotlight.
