    Would some of you guys be interested in seeing how games perform on iPadOS using a PS4/XB1 controller ?

    Posted: 25 Jun 2019 09:55 PM PDT

    So I know that some of you already know the most popular games such as Fortnite & Real Racing 3 can be played with a PS4/XB1 Controller for those that are running the iPadOS beta 2. I plan on downloading a few other games that actually support PS4/XB1 Controller and actually playing the game and seeing how it runs as I honestly have not come across someone that has done this at the moment. I do have Grand Theft Auto , Stardew Valley in mind but what games would you guys be interested in seeing how they run.

    I have the iPad Pro 12.9 1TB 3rd Gen and want to know what you guys would like to see being played for those of you that are curious about gaming on an iPad. The games I will be playing will be those that are currently available on the App Store that are either free or that I would have to purchase.

    Let me know what games you guys would like to see and I'll try to make it happen.

    I am not sure if I could showcase emulators as its illegal but I'll see what I can regarding that if I can even show gameplay of me running an emulator on my iPad. I have not tried that but may consider it.

    Has anyone gotten a Magic Mouse 2 to connect in iOS13?

    Posted: 26 Jun 2019 08:43 AM PDT

    I'm trying to get my magic mouse to connect to my 6th Gen iPad and can't seem to get the mouse to show up in the accessibility menu.

    Has anyone gotten this to work and if so, how did you do it?

    I'd also love to know if anyone has gotten a Magic Trackpad 2 to work?

    Apple could’ve added more indentations to the Keyboard Folio for more viewing angles

    Posted: 26 Jun 2019 10:27 AM PDT

    I'm sick in bed right now and have the iPad on a pillow that's on my lap, and the angle of the iPad is a little awkward, and when adjusting the two angles of the Keyboard Folio, I realized there could've been more indentations that could've worked in between the two indentations that we already have.

    I found the sweet spot right in between the two lines... it can even work if you go behind the 2nd line. There should've been an indentation one after the other.

    11 iPad Pro with External Monitors

    Posted: 26 Jun 2019 10:18 AM PDT

    I currently own a 1080p monitor (Dell U2417H) and was looking to upgrade to a 4K display. When mirroring the iPad display to the monitor, I have borders on all four sides, which I would expect as the 11 in iPad is mirroring its new aspect ratio to a monitor with 16:9 aspect ratio. The 12.9 in iPad seems to have more success as its mirroring a 4:3 aspect ratio to 16:9, so there are only borders on the sides, I get it.

    After researching quite a few different monitors, I am seeing some inconsistencies in the way the 11in iPad mirrors its display to 4K monitors with the same exact resolution / aspect ratio.

    For example LG 4K UltraFine Display (24MD4KL) vs. LG UltraFine 4K Display (32UL950). Why would there be borders only on the sides for the first monitor, but on all four sides for the second? I verified this on the 9to5Mac reviews for the two monitors. Is it because the first monitor was developed with use of Apple products in mind?

    Again, I am only talking about the 11in iPad Pro with its unique aspect ratio. I'd appreciate it if other iPad 11 in owners could share their experience using external displays.

    I’ve really been digging iPad OS,

    Posted: 25 Jun 2019 04:44 PM PDT

    From the multitasking to the desktop class safari, I've been really enjoying using my iPad more than ever. It's really been my go to creative tool, I can even fully use websites like wix (a lot of my clients use it), which was the main reason why I had to keep my mbp on me at all times. Yes, I'll still need my MAC for certain tasks, but I can now keep it at home without worry. I'd say within a few years iPad OS will make me drop the Mac line completely if they continue to improve.... it would be nice to have mouse support work like an actual mouse instead of an accessibility feature tho.

    Back on iOS 12 #ipadOS

    Posted: 25 Jun 2019 11:54 PM PDT

    With so many success stories here I want to share couple of reasons why wait with the upgrade. With public Beta out I didn't want to wait anymore so made a jump too... and now I'm back to iOS 12.

    Reasons:

    1. Never ending respring of the iPad Pro when Smart Keyboard was attached (doh! keyboard is kind of a big deal for me)
    2. Occasional re-spring with apps like Slack
    3. Mail App did behave funny (sometimes not downloading email for quite some time) and crashing.
    4. Managed to get 2x stuck in split mode and couldn't get out of it (one blank screen) and power off stopped working.

    So if your iPad [Pro] is your main driver - or very important to your flow - hold your horses :) Don't get me wrong I love a lot of new features iPadOS brings, but having stable device is more important for me

    WhatsApp Web & Safari Desktop Class

    Posted: 26 Jun 2019 02:50 AM PDT

    Hi, I don't know if I am the only one, but with iPadOS and safari desktop class using WhatsApp web finally works every time! Back then I had to manually open the desktop version, delete cookies and caches in order to reach the desktop version again or download an ugly fishy app to use it on my iPad. This is all gone now with iPadOS and I'm happier than ever with it! Am I the only one exactly hyping that feature?

    Desktop Safari on iPad, means less need for apps?

    Posted: 25 Jun 2019 06:56 PM PDT

    Conventional wisdom says iPadOS & macOS Catalina sharing apps will reinvigorate Mac apps, which it probably will in many ways. But, full desktop Safari on iPad will mean less need for apps in the first place. Think about it, many apps were created because Safari mobile was a second class citizen. Need to use Google Docs, Twitter, Dropbox, Slack, even administer Office 365? Just go to the web, no need for an app. And these are just productivity apps. I don't think the App Store will die or anything, but it's almost ironic that desktop Safari will mean less reliance on the App Store.

    Any recommendations for screen protectors for iPad Pro 11”?

    Posted: 26 Jun 2019 06:50 AM PDT

    As the title states, I'm doing my research on screen protectors. I thought I was going with Paperlike, but after seeing the color issues, I decided against it. Do the people of reddit have any recommendations for good screen protectors that work with the pencil and won't affect the image quality? Thanks everyone!

    Posted: 26 Jun 2019 08:33 AM PDT

    I can't decide lol. I am aware about the bluetooth vs smart connector difference but I'm more interested with the overall experience like if you used one of these keyboard cases pls let me know. With overall experience the weight and the usability, how long does it last or is it lasting you so far hehe. I also know Apple's smart keyboard but doesn't it have problems? For that price I rather go for these keyboard cases which are cheaper. I'm a student using it for college so hehe pls let me hear your thoughts thanks

    Elecom and Paperlike screen protectors comparison

    Elecom and Paperlike screen protectors comparison

    Recently, I bought a matte screen protector for my iPad pro from the well-known brand "Paperlike". I used it for one week during which I couldn't stop noticing the grainy matte texture so I did some further research on other alternatives. Finally, I go and get the Elecom matte screen protector and replace the Paperlike one. Since I think people like me may also looking for suitable screen protectors for their iPad, I'd like to share my experience and compare between these two famous brands.

    Graininess

    The biggest problem I cannot tolerate with the Paperlike is that the grainy texture is so obvious that I keep noticing the annoying distraction almost anywhere except for dark screens (such as while watching a movie). I went through quite a few reviews on both reddit and youtube and noticed that sp from the Japanese brand Elecom seems like providing better visual quality, though not many people are giving reviews focusing on this point. But I still went and bought one to try my luck. The conclusion is, yes, it's better than Paperlike, visually. Though matte sp cannot avoid grainy texture by nature, Elecom does make a difference in terms of the noticeability. I took picture of the display under both sps and you guys can directly tell the difference.

    https://i.redd.it/ayt3rb1njl631.png

    Glare

    As can be told from the pictures, the anti-glare property of Elecom is indeed worse than Paperlike. I guess it's a trade-off for better visual clarity? Since glare is not what I care about much, it's acceptable for me.

    Roughness

    One large difference I can tell immediately after installing Elecom is the sand-like touch feeling. It's really like touching a sand paper, so maybe a bit uncomfortable for those who keep manipulating the device with fingers. For me, Apple Pencil is the more frequent input device than my fingers so still acceptable. Besides, the more roughness really brings more friction while writing and drawing on the screen with the pencil. Very likely it will wear out the pencil nib faster than Paperlike whose touch feeling is more gentle and smooth.

    Installation convenience

    As for the installation, the stickers from the Paperlike to help align the sp with the screen is really handy. In comparison, the Elecom one is not as considerate and really requires me to be more cautious while aligning. But as long as the final installation is acceptable, the inconvenience is totally fine for me. It's just a matter of "good" vs "no" design.

    Others

    Regarding shipping time, Paperlike took roughly two weeks to reach Singapore from Germany, while I can directly buy Elecom from local electronics stores (which encourages the impulsive purchase lol)..

    Price-wise, Paperlike costs 33 USD for two pieces while Elecom costs 25 USD for just one piece.

    Conclusion

    The reasons why I insist using a screen protector are (1) I cannot tolerate the fingerprint while I have to clean everyday, (2) I do prefer a rough screen to write on more comfortably with the apple pencil. While satisfying both requirements, the Elecom one provides apparently better visual clarity than Paperlike and is the one more suitable for me. If "glare", "sandy touch", or "too-rough writing experience" is what matters to you more, probably you have to compare more. Let me know if there is any further question about the comparison between those two brands :)

    FYI, the Elecom one is TB-A18LFLAPLL which they advertise as "kent paper type" with less friction than their previous model, and they do have an installation guide in English on their website :)

    iPad OS with Sony A7iii

    Posted: 25 Jun 2019 07:57 PM PDT

    Anyone here with a Sony A7iii and iPad OS installed? Just want to know if the files app can see the videos even when the camera is in Mass Storage mode.

    Currently, I use MTP mode so that I can import the videos to my iPad Pro but it is really really slow. In mass storage mode, only the photos are seen.

    Quick pages iOS Question.

    Posted: 26 Jun 2019 01:08 AM PDT

    Hi. I've googled but can't find the answer. Please can reddit help?

    On pages on my iPad I want to delete one page of my document. If I open my thumbnails and click on the page I want to delete it will highlight ALL 13 pages. How can I just highlight one page to be deleted? I click on the one page, all pages get highlighted. I click delete and a prompt comes up "do you want to delete all 13 pages?" No I don't :(
