A great tablet indeed, loved it! đź‘Ť
Not happening for me before iPads go OLED.
Apple never promised anything more precise than coming this fall, so it's hardly a fail. Also, I prefer for them to take the time to correct bugs rather than rushing their work to fit your imaginary deadline
For my phone I totally agree, but my iPad is a more of a whatever device so I don’t mind it having a bug here or there
They said "Public Release this Fall" at the keynote. October is still in the Fall, so they didn't fail.
I hope they delay Ventura even longer. From what I've seen it is rough. Especially the settings app. Yikes.
If you close an app and reopen it, it will not remember its last position/size.
macOS has Stage Manager but it's OK because macOS also has the old and good way of using windows, Stage Manager on macOS is an option, not imposed as the only way to use windows.
Usually the new macOS is launched in October, about 1 month later than iOS.
Maybe this time, they're trying to release them all together?
Could be that iPhone 14 will become available in October..?

That why I use a iPad mini for casual usage, and Mac laptop and desktop for its strengths. While I like the thought of having sorta a Mac like GUI on iPadOS, I don't think stage manager is the Rosetta Stone for iPadOS being akin to MacOS.
Guess we shall see as stage manager becomes more used by a lot of people with their comments/opinion's.
There are people with a bias against working from home and believe everyone just slacks off 24/7 when they WFH. In reality, if people slack they'd be fired. But impossible to convince some of that.
Anyone using an external monitor with it? The mini is roughly the same size as 4 iPhone screens, so it's definitely possible to put 4 screens on the tablet at once. And even today, with iOS 15, you can get 4 apps on screen at once. I'd say that the form factor is the limiting factor, except there's really not a massive size difference between the mini and pro.
Absurd? Welll maybe. But just suppose I have a few thousand books and I use the iPad mostly for reading. Visit a couple of news sites, play a game once a month, NEVER watch youtube, listen to music only on the iPhone, have NO social networking apps. Plus I enjoy turning the pages like I’m reading a real book. On a sidenote I threw away my tv-set 19 years ago. Guess what? I’m not like you.
So… um… Split View?
Which has existed on the iPads for going on seven years now.
I completely understand the people running on older iPad Airs and pros upset that they don’t get stage manager.
I get it. I know people in your position. I also think it’s very ridiculous.
The 2018-2020 Pros should be able to run it just fine.
But as for the iPad Mini, I have no idea why anyone would want stage manager on it.
You can already stuff three apps on the 8.3 inch screen between split view and slideover, and you can create multiple spaces of sets of split view and slide over apps.
Exactly what benefit would stage manager bring to that small of a display?
Not everything is a conspiracy.We’re not getting the whole story
Meh. Stage Manager isn’t all that. Certainly doesn’t warrant someone buying a new iPad.
If they don't release it at the same time as iOS then they will fail to release it on time.
Who says? Just because it was that way before, doesn't mean it has to be. They never promised you it would be out the same time as iOS. They said "Fall" that's it.
What features is Apple dropping? No one is losing any features they had when they bought their hardware.
