You need to explore multitasking. Key to accessing and controlling multi-tasking features is the small “three-dot” button that is found at the top-centre edge of the screen.


More information about using multi-tasking can be found in this support page:

The iPad User Guide is also a rich source of information about using iPad and its many features. The Guide is available both online using a web browser (such as Safari), or as an Apple Books download:

Also be aware that a long-touch of an attachment link/icon will open the link in a preview window - whereas a simple “tap” will open the attachment.
