Right but I knew it was too good to be true
For them to not announce ANYTHING at all to take any use for this new system….maybe they’ll do something separately because its so major 😂, if not we will again get our hopes up once more next year…..
Got a tip for us?
Let us know

They didn’t even add any handoff enhancements…. But tbh I feel you and I think you still can
They finally announced one feature I wanted - safari extensions for ipad
Really glad I took back the M1 iPad and stuck with my 2018 Pro. Zero justification for that new hardware whatsoever here.
Maybe Apple employees really need to be in the office working.
How often are "tent pole" features missing from the WWDC preview? I will say the universal control with Mac looked pretty cool, wondering what/if anything more could be done utilizing this feature
I'll stay on iOS14 if we can't hide the app library.
yea... no. If those widgets were actually interactive and not static blobs of content, it might have made more sense. And you still don't need an M1 and 16GB RAM for that.
This post deserves a lot of upvotes! 😂
This is a phoned in update, even by Apple standards. More like mailed in...
There are no shortage of really good 3rd party calculator apps - PCalc being one of the best. I'm more frustrated that they still don't have a dedicated iPad weather app. There are a plethora of 3rd party options, but no as elegant as Apple's.
I don't have an iPad Pro or an M1 iPad Pro and I watched this keynote feeling bad for people who bought them.
It was literally the un-game changer lol.

I did like the way they showed it with Home Screens that themselves have themes...work, games, etc. Treating each home page like a folder, with some big widgets and a few app icons.
So, what's different (feature) that you can do on an m1 11 inch iPad Pro vs the iPad Air? Am I forgetting something - Includes only the camera difference? I was waiting to see what great iPadOS change they were going to make so that I would want to upgrade my 11 inch 2020 pro... Hint: Desktop mode would have pushed me there.
So, I may be misunderstanding this. I'm PROBABLY misunderstanding this, but on my phone, I can add widgets anywhere on any screen. On my iPad, am I still limited to doing that on the lone home screen?
Currently yes you can only utilize widgets via the 'Today View' on the iPad but in iPadOS 15 you will be able to add them to the home screen like you can with your iPhone
There's a thousand calculator apps for the iPad, just pick one. The one on the iPhone is not magically better than all the others.
Playgrounds will be huge for me if it works as well as hope it will. This alone might push me to buy a new iPad Pro. Those that say they did not do any Pro App, well this is one.
My favourite thing that no one will talk about: you can now hide an entire page of Apps, here goes all those Apple Apps I don't need to see. They were a real eye sore.
