Just Show Me: How to change the function of the side switch on your iPad

Welcome to Just Show Me on Tecca TV, where we show you tips and tricks for getting the most out of the gadgets in your life. In today's episode we'll show you how to change the function of the side switch on your iPad.

By going into the iPad's settings you can change your side switch's function to either mute or lock the rotation of the iPad. Most people prefer to have the side switch lock the rotation of the iPad, and use a long press of the volume button to mute (as we've already shown you).
