Apple Releases iPadOS 16 With Stage Manager, Weather App, Desktop-Class Apps and iOS 16 Features

And BugFest starts now… I just hope it’s the only one which I have to report via Feedback
Forgot to tell that Lock Screen editing is a joke

Just loaded. Turned on stage manager, and first thought after 5 minutes: I don’t like it. It is cumbersome and not intuitive. However, I know that it will take time, so I will give it a few days. I almost always use my iPad with 3 windows, side by side and then maybe a movie or something in PIP. So, trying to use that in Stage manager works, but not quite in the same manner.. Stay tuned….

Good thing you can quickly turn it on/off from the Command Center.
I have mixed feelings about it, I think it could have been better than what it is now. The column with recent apps on the left seems like wasted space to me. Also, being unable to close apps with a gesture in some cases, will take time to get used to.

Strange, it's still not popping up in Canada for me on my 2018 ipad pro. Guess they forgot about us. . . like always, lol.

Nearly 90min later, and still not available on my iPad. Mac, Watch, and iPhone got it right away.

Tried multiple reboots, disconnecting from Wi-Fi, and no profiles on the device.

First time using stage manager on my iPad Pro 12.9 3rd gen (2018), and have to say, I am loving it. Probably some bugs and annoyances that I am yet to came across. Agree about being unable to close apps with gestures.

Installed the RC (20B79) last week. Since this is a slightly different build (20B82) how does one upgrade to todays final? Nothing is showing up in software update for me.
 
I’m liking stage manager so far, having the ability for more windows is cool. If it wasn’t for 12.9 inch i feel like it would be cramped.
 
Ok so it seems like the shared library adds a free functionality that google photos have had for a long time. Auto-add images to a shared album with specific people.

I'm glad its not a paid function but I guess welcome
