I have reviewed several sources about how to disable the side panel which bugs me. I can find no Blue Book symbol on my ipad. I have nothing in settings refering to multitasking. I am at a loss. How can I get rid of it? Ipad pro (10.5 inch)

Presumably you refer to a slide-over App window?


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