How do I close all tabs on iPad pro?

Answered by Ricardo McCardle

Closing all tabs on an iPad Pro is a simple process that can be done in a few quick steps. Here’s how you can do it:

1. Open Safari: Locate the Safari app on your iPad Pro’s home screen and tap on it to open the web browser.

2. Access the tab view: In the Safari app, you’ll see a square icon with two overlapping squares at the bottom right corner of the screen. Tap on this icon to access the tab view. This will show you all the open tabs in Safari.

3. Close individual tabs: If you want to close specific tabs, swipe left or right on each tab to reveal the “Close” option and tap on it. Repeat this process for all the tabs you want to close individually.

4. Close all tabs: To close all tabs at once, tap and hold on the tab icon again (the square icon with two overlapping squares) at the bottom right corner of the screen. This will bring up a menu with options.

5. Select “Close All [X] Tabs”: In the menu that appears, you’ll see an option that says “Close All [X] Tabs,” where [X] represents the number of open tabs. Tap on this option to close all the tabs in Safari.

6. Confirm the action: A confirmation prompt will appear, asking you to confirm if you want to close all the tabs. Tap on “Close All [X] Tabs” to proceed with closing all the tabs.

That’s it! All the tabs in Safari on your iPad Pro will be closed, providing you with a fresh start for your browsing session. It’s important to note that closing tabs in this manner will not delete your browsing history or bookmarks, so you can still easily access your favorite websites and revisit previously visited pages.

In addition to manually closing tabs, Safari on iPad Pro also offers the option to automatically close unused tabs after a certain period of time. This can help keep your tab bar clutter-free and improve browser performance. To enable this feature, go to the Settings app on your iPad Pro, scroll down and tap on “Safari,” then under the Tabs section, select “Close Tabs” and choose the desired time interval for automatic tab closure.

I hope this detailed guide helps you in closing all tabs on your iPad Pro.
