Someone should make a meme out of the fake coffee shop surfshark sponsor at this point 😂

Great video….however I’m not sure I understand exactly how you feel about MLS tab 🤣

Weirdly enough I have 17.7 and 18.0 update. First time getting 2 update choices

For the home section on the control center you don’t have to delete it. You can long press and select what accessories to add to that larger view instead of just doing the Siri suggested ones.

Really wish they’d make drag down from anywhere while on Home Screen show both control center and notifications, like android

Many people seem to expect the iPad to eventually replace a desktop computer, but each year, iPadOS seems to move further away from that idea, or at least is stagnating. Perhaps my understanding of what the iPad should become is flawed.

Christopher, I like your style. You just made a new friend

This is an awesome review - I am glad it was released today so I do not need to watch a competitor's video. My favorite features are the calculator and reminders improvements as well as the dark icons - so nice to see something new. When Chris mentioned journal is not on Ipad I was reminded about the app and reminded myself why I forgot about it - since I use Day One. Yet would love to use Journal but must be added to the Ipad - I refuse to use it from my phone. I wonder if they are not releasing it because they don't know how to integrate apple pencil with handwritten entries since they know we would want that. This makes the Ipad really complete - I agree they need to come up with some compelling improvements to justify people buying the Ipad Pro version - I need to see that before I update my Ipad Pro in the future even though I could upgrade now - I choose not to since I do not see the value in doing so - no compelling improvements to justify the premium of buying a pro. I am confused that since AI is limited to having a new Iphone will they do the same with Ipad or make it available to Ipad users? Hope Chris can address this in a future video.

When i write in note font style doesn’t change why?

[TechYourNeeds]

I'm missing the Apple Notes widget. It was there at first. I do have the app, but not the widget.

[Jordas]

Only thing I really want from ipad still is clamshell mode. I wish stage manager was updated its still gimmicky. Being able to customize the control center is awesome it sucks you cant swipe up to close it anymore though. I also like being able to adjust widgets on the fly now too.

[XtremeEntertainment-xn]

I cannot at the personal hotspot widget that large on the connectivity page, it always goes to another page. Do you know why Chris? I want to have it as you as a large icon in the connectivity page

[pavokov]

dont update your m4 ipads i just updated mine this morning and i cant turn it on !!

[kamalism]

Smart script also works when filling out a PDF form using markup and Apple Pencil as I just found out! Especially useful when the writing spaces in the form is small.

[AlexeyKurakin-lm]

Hello Christopher! What is the camera app you are using?

[GJJ]

Hi, how did you get the finder APP on your ipad?

[Zereniti]

Apple still hasn't fixed the prepend/Append to textfile-bug in Shortcuts. In short: If you have a shortcut that asks for text input, and you then tell it to prepend that text to a textile, it doesn't do it. If you take the exact same shortcut and tell it to append the text, it works fine. This bug appeared in iOS17, and is still unfixed. Yes, I have submitted bug-reports.

[Bliss]

Finally adds Bluetooth priority to headsets and controllers in gaming mode.

[drdimorng]

Does file app icon Change to finder icon in iPadOS 18, sir?

Given how often Apple designs by the 'just do it our way and you'll like it' philosophy there's a lot of apprehension in how much intelligence there will be in Apple Intelligence.
