The explanation of the difference between Stage Manager and External Display Support of what they are and how to use them was clearly delivered. Well done.

You can airplay to your airpods while connected to a monitor via TB4 port. So if you want audio to be different from your display source you can airplay to any airplay enabled speaker.

The problem I have with it right now is that it still feels like it's still in beta, even on a stable build. Certain apps don't work at all without opening on the iPad and then switching over, or doesn't even work at all on the external display. So I don't recommend it to power users until every app doesn't break when you involve the external display

To be honest the iPad Air M3 has been my main computer and I’ve just linked it up to my dell monitor using the USB-C port and really like stage manager. I mostly use it for writing, graphic editing, art & media consumption. The one thing I could see it being a bit tricky to deal with is for coding but maybe along the way apple will introduce more apps that are capable of coding.

Fernando: I wrote this in reply to a poster’s comment, but in case you didn’t see it: As of today it has been resolved! I now have “iPad” as a selection on control panel when selecting audio output while using external monitor. Thanks god! I am so sick of having to disconnect my iPad from the monitor for a Zoom meeting. Plus it’s nice to finally be able to use the iPad Pro’s amazing speakers.

Great explanations. I went through most of these when iPad os17 came out. Could not get extended to work without first having the keyboard and mouse connected. Thanks for including the solution! 🐬

You can choose to play the audio over ipad speakers. You need to do it from the ipad drag down menu.

one of the biggest struggle i had with the old school split screen multitasking on my ipad air 4 was the contextual cursor; it struggled to identify which app do i want to type in with 2 apps side by side. this basically killed my interest in using my ipad to do productive work for a while (bear in mind i was carrying a keyboard case around, which was cumbersome and heavy, and wasnt always useful). it was so bad i ditched the Logitech Combo Touch altogether and just gave up on the idea that ipad was a multitasking machine of any kind and use it as a youtube machine.

with stage manager though, i might just get back to the ipad productivity bandwagon again. cant wait for the new iPad Pro in 2024.

Thank you for this video. It taught me a few things.

I wish they would bring stage manager to some of the other iPads. The mini 6 would be much more capable if they could leverage it

Stage manager is great. IPad Pro 12.9 M2 is my Main and only work horse computer. My only gripe with extended monitor support is that when it first came out I bought a monitor to use with it, only £100 but it work great with a usb-c to hdmi cable. Sadly after a few months it stopped working and only does mirror screen. I think I finally found out why. The monitor is HDMI 1.4 and I have read somewhere from Apple you need to use HDMI 2.0. Thanks for that now I have a monitor just for screen mirror only until I can afford a new one.

At least I got to experience the first version of extended monitor for a bit I guess

[patrickospalek]

As always, great video, Fernando! I cannot wait to get an iPad Pro!🐬

[ps]

Iphone should also support stage manager too!!

[localblackman]

🐬 - I am really liking Apples improvements to Stage Manager. Im glad they removed the weird keyboard requirement for external support but i wish they would steal Samsungs virtual trackpad and keyboard implementations to just make it seamless. At the same time I wish Samsug would steal Apples multiple "desktop" support. Sure on dex you can have tons of apps open/minimized but its still just 1 desktop and no easy way to manage everything thats open (even with 12, 16, 24 gigs of ram) and seamlessly switch between workstations.

Thanks for continuing this series and keeping us informed on the stagemanager improvements!

Here’s the thing… someone like me who has always used windows, doesn’t just jump into a new operating system at once. Thanks to your videos, I have gradually moved from Windows into iOS. Videos and information like your channel have made it a comfortable move and I can’t see going back. I am not a heavy user or a gamer and so far, this 12.9 pro has slowly been replacing a Windows PC, Windows tablet, Windows laptop all in one. A magnetic case for using it as a tablet. A Brydge keyboard for laptop work. A dock for desk space office work. Thank you for the videos.

I was very excited to see the option to set Stage Manager on the External Display….every time I come home and go to the home office to dock it, the external display reverts to Mirror(ed). I thought with my 5th gen iPad Pro, it would hold the setting…..nope. Still in the same loop of pulling in iPad and having to go to settings to turn off mirroring…..from the highs to such disappointment!!!

[Fieldoftheatres]

🐬needed video.i enjoyed the tutorial format. Explaining the in and out at present.

[Unanmouz]

You're pretty good at explaining things. Thanks!

[DanielKirillov-ivww]

Hey, Apple, why not let users use ipad screen as keyboard and trackpad? While everything else is on bigger and better monitor. You don’t need any peripherals in this case

[GodswayForex]

you've really explained it very well
