Someone recently asked me to help her find a "missing" app on her iPad. I did the preliminary checks of looking through each page on her iPad as well as checking into all of the folders on her iPad to help her find the app. But I couldn't find the app either.

Can you please help me? - Rozlyn W from Springfield, Illinois ANSWER: I can't tell from your question whether or not you picked up a new Nextbook Next3 tablet or a used one so I am going to answer your question both ways. If the table is used (or previously owned), it may very well be that the tablet is already loaded with enough apps to fill up the memory. If this is the case,… Continue reading...
