Closing multiple safari pages

I double clicked on the home button of my iPad Pro and noticed that I have 12 safari pages open. 7 don’t have any websites in search bar. How do I close all of the Safari pages?

iPad Pro 12.9-inch, 2nd Gen, Wi-Fi

As described, you have 12 separate Safari “spaces” (i.e., instances) open on your iPad.


If any of the open Safari spaces appear to be blank/empty, this simply indicates that the page hasn’t been cached. Opening the blank Safari instance - and refreshing the page - will refresh the cached page.


If you instead wish to close one or more if your open Safari instances - from the Task Switcher (which you can access with a double-click if the Home button - or by swiping-up from the bottom edge of the screen and briefly pausing before lifting your finger) simply swipe the window corresponding with the unwanted App instance off the top of the screen.


I hope this clarification and guidance is helpful in resolving any issues that you perceive.
