    All iPads Is getting iPad worth it?

    I am looking into buying an iPad, either iPad 9th gen (350€) or second hand Air 4 (420€). I already have MacBook Air M1, that I am 100% happy with, mostly I do Uni work, read PDFs, Excel work and content consumption. But I am thinking that maybe iPad can do PDF annotation better and is more...

    Anyone else noticed strange behavior on the Apple Books app??

    My Apple Books app on my iPad is acting up - when I try to purchase discounted books the price keeps jumping up when I go to buy. Is this just me or has anyone else seen this happen??

    I have many Pages documents in different folders on my Mac and sometimes I need to edit them on an iPad. I tried to use iCloud for this, but it seems iCloud requires me to move them to the iCloud folder first, and this isn't convenient to me (that is, I want to keep them in their original...

    For a specific use case, I would need a USB-C multitouch touchpad for iPad Pro. Does anyone know if there are any other options than the Magic Trackpad using wired USB connection? Apple documentation is not clear whether such device must be MFi-compliant, or if a generic multitouch touchpad...

    I came across this third party Magic Keyboard case for the iPad mini 6 and I’m wondering if anyone has tried it, or know about the brand?

    iPhone 14/Plus Save my sanity!!!

    How can I limit the ability of my child to use her devices at 100% volume? She’s has autism and socially appropriate volume levels are not something she cares about. I know how to limit volume when she’s wearing her headphones but not how to limit the speaker volume across apps. Any ideas...

    iPad New Apple Pencil 1 - solely with USB-C connector

    I recently bought an iPad (10th gen) and plan to buy an Apple Pencil. Does Apple plan to release a new version of the 1st gen Apple Pencil with solely a USB-C connector? I think having a lightning to USB-C adapter with the actual 1st gen Apple Pencil is very inelegant for the 10th gen iPad...

    iPad Pro Terrible Standby Time on iPad Pro?

    Hello everyone! I have owned several iPad Pro 2018s, and all of them have a similar issue with standby time. I'll charge them up all the way, use them for a couple hours, and then leave them sitting for a day or two. By the time I get back to it, they're usually most of the way drained and I...
