Firstly, iOS as it stands is very very poor compared with a desktop OS for office work. At an absolute minimum people need to be able to have two documents up on screen at once, maybe one spreadsheet and one PowerPoint doc.
Secondly, im willing to entertain the idea that iOS could evolve into something that could become useful as a desktop replacement, but i am yet to see a single reason why it would have an advantage over competitors, and there are many reasons, such as cost, that they are at a disadvantage.
- nicholassmith 13y agoFrom my experience of working in an office with admin teams, the very large majority worked with apps open on the full screen and tabbed between them. Very rarely would they have more than app visible at once, even when they knew they could they wouldn't.
- rednukleus 13y agoThat has not been my experience with office workers. They often work with one maximized app, but they often work with more than one document at a time. For admin teams in particular they often have a small chat client open either for work reasons, or more commonly to chat with coworkers.
