It does take some effort to learn how to use newer features. My biggest complaint was figuring out how to activate “search everything on my iPad” because they changed to location/gesture. An iPad is much less valuable if you can’t simply search local content. Anyway, relief was had after twenty minutes of web searching.
I use my iPad more than all my laptops and iPhone combined. It is my default device. I use my iPhone much less since I tend to leave it at home and just use my AppleWatch for getting calls, text messages, and listening to audio books/podcasts/music on my AirPods. I only use laptops for deep learning (I have one with a good GPU) and programming.
- sjy 7y agoMay I ask how you use the "search everything on my iPad" feature? Do you depend on iCloud to store the master copy of all your files on all your devices? I don't, and I assume that's why I've never been able to get anything useful out of the system-wide search feature, but I'd be interested in making it work if I could.
- mark_l_watson 7y agoNo, the search is active when on the desktop and you swipe down from the center of the screen. The search functionality searches the data associated with most apps on my iPad, and shows internet search results below results for files in your iPad.
