Hi I got this lovely toy for christmas and I am trying to get to grips with the iPad but I can never seem to find a back or return to last screen button!! Help!?! From confused user.
 
Hi there and welcome to forum!!

Regarding your question, if you take your 4 fingers and swipe the screen left or right, it should return you to an app that you were previously at. Also, if you need to return to the main page, just press the "home" button which is the circular button close to the bottom of the screen when holding the iPad in portrait. Hope this helps!
 
Ok thanks will follow advice -there does not always seem to be a back arrow I am sure I will get used to it once I play a bit more
 
I only see a back arrow when I am using safari to surf. The back button is located in the upper left corner.
