Spotlight Search is a tool used to search through the contacts, music, movies and apps on your iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch. The Spotlight Search screen can be accessed by swiping from left to right while on the iPad's home page, which is the first page of apps on the iPad.
The Spotlight Search tool can also be used to search through email or even launch the Safari browser to perform a web search. You can learn more about the Spotlight Search tool in our tutorial video.
