    iPad Pro 2018 iPad Pro owners - Have you upgraded to the M4 iPad?

    Hi all, I have a 2018 12.9in iPad Pro and can't decide on whether to upgrade to the M4 13in Pro. The main issue with my current iPad is the subpar battery, which cannot be replaced by Apple (they claim battery health is >80% when it clearly isn't). It isn't unusable however, and is still...

    iPad Canva Copy/Paste

    Hey all, I use Canva on an iPad, and recently have lost the ability to copy/paste between designs. After reaching out to Canva, they claim this is the result of a change Apple made in 17.4. From Canva support: I don’t have access to a non iOS device. Am I screwed out of my regular copy/paste...

    iPad iPad as the only device

    There are always these questions about Mac vs iPad (Pro) and I felt like sharing my experience. I decided to switch to iPad back in 2016 after the original (1st gen) iPad Pro hit the market. I ditched my 13” MacBook Pro and never looked back. I always used my private devices for work and...

    All iPads How to autofill web forms without having to tap?

    Is there a way to automatically fill web forms (e.g., address, CC, etc.) upon page load without having to tap anything or authenticate? I.e., I want the fields to already be filled when the page loads. I'm basically looking for the functionality I get from this on my Mac with Chrome...

    This YouTuber has actually made Siri useful.

    For eons, Siri has been arguably one of the worst voice assistants on the market. For eons, your queries have either elicited the responses "Here's what I found", "Just a sec" or "Something went wrong." Ladies and Gents, this goes on no longer. I implore all of you to check out IDeviceHelp's...

    All iPads iPad OS Expectations

    Based on the big jump on recent hardware upgrades to both the iPad Pro (last year) and the iPad Air to the M1 chip and the lack of many new features to the iPad OS releases... I expect a great WWDC this year with many iPad OS updates. Because of how disappointing WWDC hast been in the last few...

    iPadOS 15 is the buggiest OS Apple has ever released

    Hello, As title says. I mean it’s just unbelievable, we’re 3 months or so away from WWDC and iPadOS 15 is just an absolute mess. I love using both my macbook and my iPhone and have generally very smooth experiences with both of them, but iPadOS is just a complete disaster. I genuinely cant go...

    Opening MacRumors in a new tab logs me out (under 14.6 (18F71))

    Anyone else getting this? I’m logged in in one tab, I long-touch a link to open it in a new tab and in that tab I need to re-log in and enter my MFA token again.

    Mac Catalyst Reverse-Engineered

    Would you rather iPad OS with catalyst R-E or Mac OS on iPad. What I mean is if you can use catalyst to put iPad OS and iOS apps on Mac, can you put Mac apps on iPad, if so that would be great, so you could use Xcode and final cut, and main stage, and logic and the other Mac desktop applications...

    iPad OS 14: App Library missing

    If Apple doesn't add the App Library to my iPad, bad things are going to happen. I want to delete app icons and I want to be able to hide homescreens, just like I'm now used to with my iPhone and iOS 14. It's such an improvement. I don't want to be a home screen icon messy anymore. 😣 It's easily...

    2014 27" iMac and Sidecar Performance

    I've used Astropad Pro for a while with a 2014 27" iMac. Its performance has been fine, but I think the $12/month subscription is a bit of a price gouge. I was excited about Sidecar and recently updated to iPad OS 13 and Catalina beta to realize my iMac is not supported. I've found the work...

    iPad iPad OS 13 does not show Safari open tabs in iPhone and Mac.

    Hi. Ever since I installed iPad OS 13 (public beta 2 and onwards) on my iPad, I have been unable to see the Safari Open Tabs on my Mac and iPhone. The Mac and iPhone are in the latest non beta versions, and they are both connected between each other. But the iPad, on Beta 13.1 in iPad OS...

    iPad Pro 4GB enough for future iPad OS iterations?

    I am very much in the market for an 11-inch 256GB iPad Pro but am holding off because of the 4GB ram and the possibility of the next iteration coming as soon as october. (how likely is that actually?) I am especially wondering how the 4GB will fare with the new iPad OS that doubles down on real...
