  • Matt has the right gif for my thoughts on iPadOS

    by

    Entirely stealing from Matt Birchler. I love my iPad but I feel like Charlie Brown and Apple is Lucy. I trust she won’t pull the football away again like she always does, but she’s going to. I always hope Apple will push my favourite form factor device just a bit more so I can use…

  • Lou on the iPad Release

    by

    While I don’t think the new iPad release is compelling I also agree with Lou Don’t let anyone else tell you how you should feel or use your personal technology. Use what works for you. Enjoy it without shame. This goes for anything you enjoy that’s not harmful to others. Enjoy the music you enjoy…

  • The M4 iPad Pro is Faster

    by

    So the new iPad Pro is faster and has a better screen and is thinner. All things I would expect for an incremental upgrade. Reading further through the reports about the iPad I see nothing that makes it a compelling purchase to replace my M1 iPad Pro. I bet I’ll still have issues with some…

  • The iPad isn’t a Mac

    by

    Jason Snell speaking about the reveal of what would become the M series chips in the iPad Pro: But that boast also drew the iPad into direct comparisons with PC laptops, and while its sheer hardware power might have defeated most of those laptops, power isn’t everything. It’s what you do with the power. And…

  • 2 Days Back Working on an iPad

    by

    Lee Peterson is moving to an iPad as his primary work machine. This is the same way I feel about the iPad. If I want to sit down and plan my to do list I can do it with Things 3 and the Apple Pencil, if I want to type things up (list this post)…

  • Matt’s iPad Report Card

    by

    The iPad Mini hasn’t been touched since 2021, and this is the one iPad I’m not super worried about camera placement. I would like to see it get a processor bump to the A16 or M1, as well as some reduced bezels if they can. I disagree with reduced bezels for the iPad Mini. I use my…

  • Matt Gemmell an a Second Screen with his iPad

    by

    Matt writes about using an e-ink screen to scribble on as a secondary screen with his iPadPro as the main device. The main issue he’s trying to solve is wanting to scribble on the iPad while it’s also his main screen for writing. I’ve solved this by having my iPad on a VESA arm on…

  • Chris Lawley’s 2023 iPad Desk

    by

    Much like Chris, I’ve been using my iPad more again with the changes in iPadOS 17. My biggest problem was Obsidian being slow for a while, but after some testing Obsidian is no longer slow on my iPad.

  • Is Obsidian Slow on the iPad?

    Is Obsidian Slow on the iPad?

    by

    Recently I engaged in a short discussion with Chris Lawley on Mastodon about Obsidian feeling really slow on my iPad. In short, I’ve been using my iPad less because Obsidian has been slow. I’ve been unable to scroll on notes and typing is possible, but painful. This doesn’t feel like it should happen on an…

  • Most of the Apps Jeff Uses on the iPad aren’t from Apple

    by

    From Jeff: I used to flame people on Twitter for saying that the iPad wasn’t a “real computer,” but as I step further away from my iPad, the less I feel like it was ever meant to be a primary computing device. I love my iPad Pro (11″ 2020 model), and I use it for…
