They were the same system, but iPadOS has seen quite a few updates that were specific to iPadOS in recent years and didn't get all of the iOS updates. Therefore I would say that they are different systems, even if they stem from the same system similar to how different Linux distributions are different operating systems even though they have lots of similarities.
- Kwpolska 2y agoI would say they're the same system, differing by some #ifdef's.
- prmoustache 2y agoA linux distro produce different deliverable medias for server, desktop and mobile use, as well as for different architectures. That doesn't mean the OS is not the same.
- extraduder_ire 2y agoI think it's the application store that matters, and ipads can run iOS apps just fine with some zooming/scaling issues. There's even a single checkbox you pick before uploading to make your software available to it as well as iOS.
