    iPad Examples of accidental damaged covered by AppleCare?

    My wife and I recently purchased new iPads with AppleCare. I’ve never had AppleCare on my devices, but the coverage of accidental damage was enticing. Side note: I dropped my first iPad - the lovely iPad 2 - a week after I got it back in 2011. Shattered the whole screen. ? That was expensive to...

    Fitness+ Fitness+ on TV using iPad USB-C to HDMI?

    For those without an Apple TV but have an iPad with USB-C and want to experience Fitness+ on a big screen TV, does Apple "allow you" to mirror the display to a TV via HDMI? Is there some kind of HDCP protection that prevents this, presumably to force people to purchase Apple TVs?

    Old ipads and new bluetooth speakers (iPad Air 1st gen)

    I'm looking for feedback and advice towards finding a compatible bluetooth speaker model, to pair with an old ipad of mine. Past experience has taught me that getting bluetooth devices to communicate is far from guaranteed - especially when there is an age gap in the hardware. Unexpected...

    iPad Pro Which size iPad Pro for college?

    I'm currently looking to purchase an iPad Pro for note taking. I have a 2017 MacBook Pro 13", horrible keyboard and its performance is unbearable. I'd be trading in my iPad Air 3.
