> Android has supported exactly this since 1.5 (2009) But I think those widgets are still so Vista/Dashboard-like in nature; they're made to look good and present simple information, but rare are the widgets that are generally more useful than the features built directly into the launcher (of which my favourite Android launcher remains Nova). > I honestly have no idea what you're talking about here. Multiple workspaces aren't exactly a new innovation I didn't say the iPadOS implementation was a new innovation. You might be trying to read something into what I said that isn't there. > Mission Control just seems to be a fancier but less usable variant of alt+tab The difference is that Mission Control doesn't just handle open windows or apps, it also handles groups of windows (Spaces). It's also far from being less usable, especially if you are accustomed to using multitouch gestures — and with things like MacBook or Magic Trackpads, the crowd of people who're allergic to taking their hands of the keyboard no longer have the monopoly on productivity. Basically, they took that productivity and brought it to a touch-first system, making it work for touch. Not a new innovation, no. But the best kind of innovation: taking something that exists and improving upon it. (And iOS already has Cmd-Tab support)
