Just picked up a new iPad Air this afternoon. I’ve owned iPads for years and this was an excellent reminder of things to go through. Throughout the years you honestly can forget, and sometimes get overwhelmed with all the things they can do.

If Microsoft office apps were as they are on laptops i would have never used laptops again, i pads are becoming way more reliable

[SethSterner]

Sooo I’ve had my iPad 10 for a few months and I had no idea the connectivity options between MacBook and iPad. I probably would never have found that out without this video so yeah, thanks man!

[felixx]

It’s not even an iPad anymore it’s a mini laptop

[colleensock]

Thank you. I have never seen a more comprehensive video that will include “old people” 😁😎.

Finally a lefty testing the ipad! As a fellow lefty i was wondering if the pencil pro features were optimized for us and it makes me happy to see it.

24:26 no bc siri never answers me and i have it on i think she hates me 😭😀

[stevescissors]

Thank you, you're the best! This video helped me a lot.

[tanmayagarwal]

this is a great video

must watch

I loved it, Thanks man!

[christineveira]

Thanks for this video. I’ve been an iPad user for years and recently got the new iPad Air (yay go me!) I learnt a ton from watching this

[Dougchinneryphotography]

Brilliant. The best iPad video I’ve seen. No waffle. Focused and every tip very useful. Excellent presentation. Subscribed. Thank you.

[lawrencecirillo]

Great video. Thank you. You got my sub!

[gambaloni]

seeing you pull that big ipad from your jacket just made me laugh lol. Thanks for the vid, it's helpful

[seguiric]

Thank you so much for your video. I just purchased a iPad Air last month in New York and this has really helped me out some settings. Completely forgot to use.

[DPTGo]

Just called Apple to ask about this and apparently if you have HANDOFF turned on with WiFi and Bluetooth (not necessarily connected to the WiFi similar to airdrop) they can still connect 🤷🏻‍♀️

Welcome back, buddy! @dionmedia missed all your lovely clips.

Any recommendations for a good case for the iPhone 14 Pro Max? Pitaka or another brand?

[hishamonepackage]

Wow, from the first three minutes, I knew it was exactly what I wanted. Thanks. Just a question: how does the keyboard look if apps are in split view? Does the keyboard cover all the apps or only show up in one app (the one I started typing on)? 3:20

[stormbytes]

iPhone 15 and iPad M4, swiping from the bottom does NOT close the application.

[raesuckling]

What is a good clean up app for iPad please Dion.. also can it be used on an iPhone 15 pro.. I have heaps of photos doubled up..

[mysticlady]

Do you know if I can use my old iPad Air (2018) like this with its compatible keyboard with my new 10th gen (2022) iPad or vice versa? Using display as secondary display.
