There's a four-finger slide for switching apps on the iPad... It may need enabling, though. The four fingers don't have to be spread out - just together is fine.

- hack_edu 15y agoReally though, the home button design is really showing its age... Look how much screen real estate it takes up on the iPhone, or how much of the iPad's frame could be utilized if there were soft keys. Its become the first thing I notice whenever I pick up my iPad. Just a big ol' ugly button.
