    iPad Hey Apple - Make ‘Em Tougher

    Why can’t Apple put that creativity into tougher iPads? We are human. We drop things. Cases help, but there will be those times they are out of the case. Expensive iPads should be built to survive a fall from table height without a cracked screen or warped outcome. It should not have to be...

    iPad Multitasking support: why do developers get to decide?

    I'd like to know why Apple leaves it up to developers to decide if they want to support multitasking. eg. Why does Google get to decide that Gmail app doesn't support it? This is 2019.

    Trying to pair iPads to a Sony SRS-ZR5 speaker. Speaker works fine on Bluetooth (got it paired to a nearby amp). But when I try and get either a 2019 or a 2018 iPad to pair, neither machine recognises the Bluetooth device. Anything obvious that I'm (probably) doing wrong? Or, any hints and...
