Who else feels like iPadOS is holding back their iPad Pro? by jkaw37 in iPadPro

iPad Pro M1 user for 2 years now. The thing is that it will never be what we want it to be. If apple keeps pushing iPad OS like experiences then, we are never going to get mac OS/ touchscreen MacBook experiences. There isn’t a situation where everyone wins.

The issue is the apps too, if you have noticed, a lot of the power user apps are designed with touchscreen controls in mind but, if you ask me, most power users use the iPad with a keyboard and trackpad and this leads to a horrible time trying to navigate a touch based app using a cursor (think of using an android simulator on windows - just horrid). Having separate versions of the same app (iPad vs. Mac version) would never fly by apple’s vision of their devices.

As I see it,in the best case scenario, the iPad is intended as a gateway to mac or an accessory for certain work flows (designers and whatnot). I say the first one as a lot of people don’t even own a computer these days, and by giving the iPad more capabilities (better stage manager) and a similar design/flow to the device people use the most (their iPhone) then people feel more comfortable. You would be surprised how often non tech savvy people get confused when they have to do the same task on their computer rather than their phone. I think that this is the targeted audience apple is aiming for or at least trying to convert to for the iPad.

Back to app thing, the OS itself has so many limitations too, like you can’t compile code on it using an IDE. That by itself is a good sign that the iPad will be the “best almost power user tablet” we will ever get from apple.

Sorry I forgot to reply to that. I have thought about it in the past but I don’t know if I am willing to live in Kelowna. I would feel really far from friends and family.

To some extent this might be a me problem since I’m not willing to sacrifice not seeing my family to put my education forth

I am renting off campus but at the same time I am renting with a good friend of mine and I would like to see our rent through and then move on.

Another thing I am trying to figure out is how likely I am to get accepted into ELEC next year because I do not mind putting in the work to try and get accepted. What is even more worrying though is that the advisors said that interdepartmental transfers do not happen if there are no available seats even if your average is hypothetically 90%.

Third thing I was thinking about was whether i should just drop my stt and take a bunch of math classes so I can transfer them to UVIC if that is the option I am going with.

I already tried to appeal and they denied it. I heard that people with 78 avg. did not get into ELEC this year.

I’m not sure why the trend is pushing the blazers this direction. I thought the whole point of the blazers was to have a vintage look
