So this is a little janky, but I mocked up a quick idea to make the options to access notifications and Control Center more discoverable when using a cursor. Here's an animated version: The currnet UI just highlights the date/time or battery/wifi/etc blocks, and clicking
Bar none, the biggest issue I run into on the iPad is dealing with local storage. Like, by a mile. I'll give you an example that happened to me tonight. I recorded some video of the new Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Remake this evening and wanted
What if Apple built Windows? Out there question, I know, but stick with me on this one. If Apple made Windows, would you like it more than you like it day? The features would be the same, and maybe it would work more smoothly with Apple’s iCloud services, but
Not your average Magic keyboard review.
TLDR: The 45W charger was faster in both the iPad Pro’s built in port, as well as the one in the Magic Keyboard’s hinge, but you lose about 25% of the speed when using the Magic Keyboard’s port. Both ports are still faster than the stock 18W
Look, one of these tests is going to produce interesting results eventually… I charged my iPad Pro up to 100%, turned the screen to 100% brightness, opened a Numbers document, and comitted to typing a little gibberish every minute for 2 hours to make sure the keyboard stayed active and
The answer is kinda boring, actually. It’s effectively the same as plugging into the iPad itself. Setup * 12.9” iPad Pro (2018) * Stock 18W charger * Stock USB-C to USB-C cable form the box Basically, I’m charging with the plug that comes in the box. Methodology I wore the
It’s a keyboard case…it’s an accessory…so let’s hit things quickly. The Elephant in the Room (no pun intended) In a recent episode of the wonderful Brooklyn Nine-Nine, a certain corgi is referred to as a “thicc king.” I didn’t know it at the time,
I just got my Magic Keyboard in the mail, and first impressions are pretty good. Before I spill more words on yet another review of this thing, I'll share the thing that stood out to me first: the angles. The above photo overlays the 12.9" iPad
This concept for an iPad Main Menu is a very well put together mockup, and it’s clear a lot of thought has gone into making it. This is a fantastic mock up, and this idea of a main menu is something I could see making iPadOS better than it
Okay, so this one requires some credits before anything else. 1. I modified Brian Renshaw’s shortcut which saves the page as a JPEG to Day One. 2. His was modified from one by Matthew Cassinelli. 3. His was modified from this one on Reddit. The Shortcut Download it here.
Apple made a lot of iPad users very happy yesterday where they unveiled mouse and trackpad support in iPadOS 13.4. A someone who has been asking for more full featured mouse support for a while, this got me really excited and I immediately installed the update and tried it
I am currently using a 12.9” 2018 iPad Pro and I truly love it. We are a few weeks (maybe) away from a new model coming out, and I thought this was a good time to get a few ideas out there about what I would want in an
The latest iPad rumors are that the next Smart Keyboard will have a version with a trackpad. As many have already stated, this takes the iPad Pro into a remarkably similar form factor to not only the current Surface lineup, but the original Surface from 2012. And before the snark
Here's an interesting anecdote about discoverability. Below is a very rough mock up of a web app I manage at work: The only things you need to know are the two places you can get to "General Settings." 1. A menu item which is hidden on
