The biggest problem I've found with using my iPad pro as a full time device is that the iPad does not have a real concept of keyboard focus. This is a big deal in split-screen apps, where hard as I try I can't get my terminal emulator to accept keyboard input -- I just keep typing in Safari.
Hopefully this is something that Apple addresses now that they consider iPad OS to be a real OS and not a scaled-up iOS.
- ascagnel_ 7y agoWhat happens when you Command-tab into your terminal emulator directly? I agree that split-screen input/output priority is wonky -- for example, if you have a video player app and Safari side-by-side and an external display connected, the video player app will only output to the display if it's the app on the left.
- Conlectus 7y agoThat does not shift focus reliably.
- crazygringo 7y agoThat threw me off the first time I used it too -- to have a blinking cursor in both apps, side-by-side, at the same time. My brain was going, two text cursors -- that's not supposed to happen!
