Home Button Short Cut to the iPod App or Spotlight Search

The iPad is elegantly designed with a single button, the Home Button. By default, double-clicking the Home Button takes you immediately from any app to the Home Screen. You can change the Home Button's behavior to take you quickly to Spotlight Search instead or to launch the iPod app.

Open Settings and then tap General. Next, tap Home to view Home Button settings.

Select "Search" to have the Home Button take you to Spotlight Search. Select "iPod" to launch the iPod app when the Home Button is double-clicked. If the switch for iPod Controls is ON, iPod controls will be displayed when music is playing (instead of launching the iPod app).
