When the iPad launched, you could only work on one app at a time. It made some tasks difficult, like browsing Safari while taking notes, so there was a cheer when multitasking arrived.

It has allowed you to have apps sitting side-by-side or floating on top of others. Thanks to the magic of drag-and-drop, you can grab text, images or files from an app and move it to another. With a slight drag of the first item, you can select others to move in bulk.
