New features of iOS 10.2 on your iPads

Here are some wonderful new features on your iPad you may not have discovered.
iOS 10 and iOS 10.2 features and updates, from MACLIFE Magazine.  I subscribe to this magazine and it is the best source of information out there.  The also have a free app, of course it is tied to your subscription.  But money well spent in my opinion.
