If you want the M2 iPad Pro, go for it! Life is too short. Enjoy your new iPad!!!! XO

For all the people just saying to get the M1 or that the M2 isnt worth it, arent Artists.
Hover is a HUGE turning point for Digital Artwork for Artists using iPad. This Feature is immensely helpful and we can now do so many things that we wouldve had so much trouble doing before, specifically when Painting with the Apple Pencil. Knowing exactly where and how your stroke is going to land is everything. I specifically sold my M1 for M2 only for the Hover Feature, and its worth Every Single Penny.

18:46 I also recommend putting Music Recognition. With one tap of a button, it can tell what music is playing on ur iPad or on ur mic.

Thanks for the excellent detailed intro to the iPad Pro and its many possibilities!

Thanks for the video. I just got myself an iPad Pro 11 and it is my first Apple device in over 10 years. So, I really needed this “tutorial” video. You did go really fast but it wasn’t hard to pause and rewind. Thanks for cramming as many tips as you could.

[colinmorris]

Thanks for a very informative video, so many useful tips. I traded in my 2018 model for an 11 inch M2 on Wednesday, and I’m loving it.

Cool tips! BTW, the signatures in the new sig option in the Pencil tool palette is synced to signatures you already have saved in Preview! I would expect new ones created here will also show up in preview as well. Also BTW, if you like Freeform, a doc there is basically just like one page from a Microsoft Notes document, but without the multiple levels of organization built into the UI for MS Notes. (The best product MS has ever shipped, IMHO, and it syncs flawlessly between devices and is FREE!)

Thanks for such a comprehensive video. I just upgraded to the Pro 11 from the Air 3. It’s been about a week but I am getting used to the upgrade.

I think you need to mention that the screenshot feature only works if you have Stage Manager turned OFF.

[johnshepherd]

What a lot of good ideas ...I am applying tips to my new 13" M4 😅😅😅

[DeltaDuck]

Outstanding video!..thank you for sharing..just received my ipad pro 11" today...i figured that ios 16 was installed...NOT...thanks to your video I updated and learned other features and tips!

[JR-pdxz]

But how can I set up this exclusive wallpaper in iPadOS 17? I can’t find it in wallpaper settings. Really like the look of it.

[jamesdriver]

The hover is similar to the S Pen on the dead Galaxy Note series of Samsung phones

My M1 11 inch is still great today in 2024
Got it December 2021

[cloudluxiferyt]

Traded in my 2018 iPad Pro for the 512 gb i 12.9 m2 model i do not regret it one bit

[alexanderwalter]

Brandon, that was a pretty informative “tour de force” through many things I didn’t comprehend before. Excellent!👍 Next time I watch your video I will half the playback speed😂

[TheEricBooth]

I have the new iPad Pro 2022 and I don't see those wallpapers anywhere. I also don't have a "Still" option.

[BeautyOverWithLea]

Thanks for the information! I just received my new iPad 6 th.generation 12.9 today and can’t wait to get it set up and going…
