    Hi all, I have a received a $600 Apple gift card for my birthday to purchase a new iPad and I really cannot decide whether to get the regular iPad, or opt out for the iPad Air. My main usage is quite basic: web browsing and Youtube/Netflix binging. I am not a gamer and do not use apps such as...

    Can I set up an Apple Watch Cellular with a new iPad?

    Or does it require an iPhone? Does it matter if the iPad also has Cellular or not?

    iPad iPad external monitor refresh rate support

    Hello! Can an m1 ipad support a 120hz or 144hz monitor. For example, 1440 x 2560 at 144hz? What I’ve found is: People claim there is no software lock limiting it to 60hz People still can’t get it to work My theory is that we would need a Thunderbolt compatible monitor to enable this! The...

    iPad Auto-lock not engaging on I-Pad Pro (2021)

    Hi, Anyone else having this issue? Seems like it has been happening since the latest Ipad OS update. Essentially, my auto-lock will not engage. So, if I put the ipad down and don't hit the lock screen button, the screen will stay on and the battery will drain to 0. So far I have tried...

    Hello, does anyone know if cmd + tab on the new iPadOS 16 shows all the open apps like MacOS does or just a few like previous versions of iPadOS? I really hope Apple fixes this.

    Can you use an Apple Watch only with an iPad with iPad OS 16?

    with iPad OS 16 the iPad gained the Fitness app so can it now support an Apple Watch? I am currently on an android phone, an iPad Air 4 and a 2021 16" MBP. I barely use my smartphone for anything smart, so I just can't justify spending iPad money on a phone I won't use. traditionally this meant...

    iPad Do you think pro apps will ever come to the iPad?

    For years, it’s been rumoured and people have been asking for pro apps (myself included) for the iPad. A report from Mark Gurman stated Apple is giving the iPad proper multitasking (finally!) but I haven’t heard anything about the pro apps themselves. I’m talking about Final Cut Pro, Logic Pro...

    Mirroring Apple TV TO an iPad

    I use an AppleTV and stereo Homepods for listening to music. I don’t need a TV screen on all the time for this and prefer to turn the TV off. I am not particularly impressed with Homepod Siri selecting music and so currently must turn the TV back on to select my music. It would be much better if...

    iPad Please let this report be true

    Mark Gurman recently released a report claiming that Apple is working on fixing many of the shortcomings of the iPad, but I’m worried it’ll be limited to M1 iPads. I have the 2020 12.9” iPad Pro. If the report ends up being true but the M1 iPads are the only ones to get it, should I wait for a...

    UK Pencil owners who like a bargain

    I like the idea of an Apple Pencil 2. But not enough to pay £120. I'm no artist and it'd just be helping me out in things like text editing or browsing. So, UK users – two questions, I guess: Is there a cheap(er) place to get one? I'm in no rush, so is there something to wait for, like a sale...
