iCloud Keychain
iCloud Keychain keeps your Safari website user names and passwords, credit card information,
and Wi-Fi network information up to date. iCloud Keychain works on all your approved devices
(iOS 7 or later) and Mac computers (OS X Mavericks or later).
iCloud Keychain works with Safari Password Generator and AutoFill. When you’re setting up a
new account, Safari Password Generator suggests unique, hard-to-guess passwords. You can
use AutoFill to have iPad enter your user name and password info, making login easy. See Fill in
forms on page 64.
Note: Some websites do not support AutoFill.
iCloud Keychain is secured with 256-bit AES encryption during storage and transmission, and
cannot be read by Apple.
Set up iCloud Keychain. Go to Settings > iCloud > Keychain. Turn on iCloud Keychain, then
follow the onscreen instructions. If you set up iCloud Keychain on other devices, you need to
approve use of iCloud Keychain from one of those devices, or use your iCloud Security Code.

Charge and monitor the battery
iPad has an internal, lithium-ion rechargeable battery. For more information about the battery—
including tips for maximizing battery life—see www.apple.com/batteries/.
WARNING: For important safety information about the battery and charging iPad, see
Important safety information on page 159.
Charge the battery. The best way to charge the iPad battery is to connect iPad to a power outlet
using the included cable and USB power adapter.
Note: Connecting iPad to a power outlet can start an iCloud backup or wireless iTunes syncing.
See Back up iPad on page 165 and Sync with iTunes on page 20.
iPad may also charge slowly when you connect it to a USB 2.0 port on your computer. If your
Mac or PC doesn’t provide enough power to charge iPad, a “Not Charging” message appears in
the status bar.
Important: The iPad battery may drain instead of charge if iPad is connected to a computer

Battery Usage.
The battery icon in the upper-right corner of the status bar shows the battery level or
charging status.
Display the percentage of battery charge. Go to Settings > General > Usage, then turn on

Important: If iPad is very low on power, it may display an image of a nearly depleted battery,
indicating that iPad needs to charge for up to twenty minutes before you can use it. If iPad is
extremely low on power, the display may be blank for up to two minutes before the low-battery
image appears.
Rechargeable batteries have a limited number of charge cycles and may eventually need to
be replaced. The iPad battery isn’t user replaceable; it should be replaced only by Apple or an
authorized service provider. See www.apple.com/batteries/service-and-recycling/.

DoNotDisturb,andVoiceOveronoro.Siriisgreatforkeepingyouupdatedwiththelatest

iMessage service
With the Messages app and the built-in iMessage feature, you can send text messages over
Wi-Fi to others using iOS 5 or later, or OS X Mountain Lion or later. Messages can include photos,
videos, and other info. You can see when people are typing, and let them know when you’ve read
their messages. If you’re signed in to iMessage using the same Apple ID on other iOS devices or
a Mac (OS X Mavericks or later), you can start a conversation on one device and continue it on
another. For security, messages you send with iMessage are encrypted before they’re sent.
With Continuity (iOS 8 or later), you can also send and receive SMS and MMS messages on your
iPad, relayed through your iPhone. Both your iPad and iPhone must be signed in to iMessage
using the same Apple ID. Charges may apply to the text messaging service for your iPhone. See
About Continuity features on page 25.
Sign in to iMessage. Go to Settings > Messages, then turn on iMessage.
WARNING: For important information about avoiding distractions that could lead to dangerous
situations, see Important safety information on page 159.
