I never used Dash (I never heard of it before, I might actually give it a try now), but a use case would be to have an iPad as a second/third/fourth screen. I have a dual screen setup at work, but windows gets buried really fast. A coworker would printout the most static bits of information (API docs, design mocks, storyboard etc.); this could be an alternative to that.

I definitely use an iPad as another screen, like for a UI spec. I'm skeptical about using the iPad keyboard to look things up, usually I'm copying symbols from code to lookup, or typing into Alfred. Even just moving my hands to a new keyboard would probably be slower. Which means I'm looking forward to when Dash iOS uses some of the continuity/handoff features to stay in sync with desktop Dash. (Maybe it already does?)

  > I'm skeptical about using the iPad keyboard to look things up Yeah this would be my main concert about the use case. Though if you have a bluetooth keyboard that can switch between devices it might not be so bad.

That's my thought too, especially since I lug 2 iPads with me for testing.
