What's my Mac wallpaper?! It's actually my lofi station, Kiroku Radio! You can find it here - th-cam.com/video/VXlfdHzdIj8/w-d-xo.html 📻
ive had my ipad air 4 for about 2 years now. it was a really expensive purchase personally, but i really wanted one. it is now a purchase i don't regret. i use it both for work and entertainment, and it has been such a reliable daily driver. it still works just as great as i first unboxed it! 😊✨
Same here, it was my first apple product. And it was very useful in my online classes and media consumption. And i also play games on it. Now im planning to get the iphone 13 mini later this year as a companion for my ipad. I am planning to keep my ipad until it can no longer get the updates 😅.
@@JTemperancethe 13 mini isnt worth it anymore bro,wait for the 16 mini coming out in a year and 2 months
Hey,
I’ve run across your channel and watching your videos for a while. I can easily tell you that I really really liked your contents, how you handled it and the way you explained! Even your pace and the calmness of your voice. I got too much information from your contents which I didn’t encounter in other reviews. Highly appreciated. Please keep up the good work!
Great Vid as always. I have an iPad Pro m1 11. I use that as my task manager, calendar and light work on the go. iPad mini 6 is solely my note taker for work and media consumption. And my m2 Mac air is my daily driver for everything else. For some it’s a bit over kill but for me I’ve never been more organized. As a person who runs all projects, pricing and business development for a manufacturing company, I need to stay connected in multiple ways and your vids have helped the most. By far my favorite tech TH-camr out there.
Thanks so much 🙏🏻 Always good to find tech that suits what you do!
Damn I’m in a similar role as you and want to have that setup how did you get it all together to adapt to your workflow ?
just dont understand the point if the iPad mini 6, why on earth would you use smaller screen for notetaking or media consumption these are the two things where bigger screen is better
@@noortaiyeba1068yes technically a bigger screen is better but the mini 6 can fit in your pocket and you can hold it in one hand so it’s easily accessible and convenient no one is walking around with a 12 inch iPad Pro and taking it out on the train or bus stop to watch movies on and try taking a quick note with that while on the go it’s not happening
love your explanations -when you tell about a product you use - please print name onscreen for those of us with auditory disabilities. Thanks
Another great video! Loving the iPad content.
Really helpful video, many thanks!!
Thanks for this video; now I’ll get even more out of my iPad Pro! 👍
The Magic Keyboard and Apple Pencil are invaluable!
Amazingly informative video - just found your channel. Great great tips. Looking to maximize my iPad Air gen 4 and thinking about upgrading to air gen 6 when it comes out
Thanks for the tips !
Watching this on my iPad 10th gen. I love it so much and I agree an iPad is supposed to be an IPAD. I have a pc but sometimes I just want something to stream a movie in bed or play a hair salon game 😂. The more I use my iPad the more I seem to find uses for it. Especially since I can’t fit my entire pc in my bag. My iPad can be stuffed in a laptop bag with keyboard and mouse and you can continue what you need to do!
Really helpful video!! Thank you
I do all my things, gaming watching videos reading writing chatting etc., in my iPad mini 5. Controller helps game experience, Magic Keyboard improves typing diary and thoughts, pencil is good for note writing. Great video 👍
Subscribed and saved this video, very informative!
Always enjoy your content, especially the iPad content.
I personally have an m1 iMac at home but my m1 iPad Pro is my main computer.
Something I would love apple to bring back is target display mode so I can use the iMac as a external display for the iPad
That would be amazing if they did, and thank you!
Great info! Thanks, Vid
The last points are SO true
I love my iPad Pro 12.6, I essentially set aside all other devices on the side including my phone and the only device that I find myself using abundantly for everything.
I work in film & tv and one of the most useful apps I love is scriptation. Really great for making notes on scripts, or really any doc but it has a bunch of really unique tools that I think you’d enjoy
I'll check that out!
Do you use an 11 inch or 12.9 inch?
This was a great watch!
Your aesthetic is everything I aspire to be. Keep up the great work!
Thank you! Will do!
Really love your aesthetic and videos!
Thank you!
first time watcher and learned so much!! one of my goals this year is to use my iPad more and you've given me lots of great ideas 😊I was wondering though if you can recommend a USB c hub that has worked for both iPad & a MacBook?
very clean Desktop
Another great video. Really enjoy your content. What “ink” width do you have your 3 presets set to in GoodNotes?
Love you video. Do you mind sharing how to create shortcut to play TH-cam in the background like your lofi shortcut?
Happy to be watching on my iPad Air 2.. Ipad so 15 is great, looks almost exactly like iPad os16. Work and social media are great and I can connect to 5G Wi-Fi not mobile 5G. Internet is super fast, some web pages load as soon as I press.. Apples genius is in their iPads. Which are cheaper than iPhones. I can’t wait to upgrade one day to iPad Air or Pro
Love your videos! Is there a way to share my Mackbook screen while being on a call on the iPad?
First of all, I like your Japanese Route One sign in the background.
Thanks for the video. I just bought the iPad Air 5 as my 6 year old iPad Pro is having charging issues.
The Air is my 4th iPad and thus far the one I like best. However it feels a bit different, probably because
of the lack of a home button as well as the new OS. I also bought the Apple Pencil 2.
For me personally, iPad first truly personal computer (I’m 32 old). I can do some many things in this device and always have enjoy. I can’t explain how often I use iPad for: work, learning, reading books, listening music and watch videos and other stuff…
Thanks for the informative video. What Font are you using?
Freeform is great! Currently using it with my partner to do a mood board for the house (like a private Pinterest)
That's a great use for it!
Still loving my iPad Pro m1 for work and play !!!
Hi! Love your videos, and especially the asthetic and small touches! Can I maybe ask what is this font you use in most thumbnails and as captions? It looks very nice
Thank you! And yep, it's called Made Dillan
Enjoyed the vid - a couple of tips I probably heard about somewhere but never used enough for them to stick. I’ve been quite content with my 2018 iPad Pro. I still have a laptop but it doesn’t see a lot of use these days. As an aside - I’d listen to you read a dictionary, man - great voice that reminds me a lot of Jonny Ive. Man, I miss his voiceovers in the Apple product videos…
Nice review mate,,
Glad you enjoyed it
Biggest thing about Stage Manager not being “quite there” is app compatibility! Developers - even major ones (I’m looking at you Facebook, Zoom, and Discord) need to get on board!!!
Agreed!
Still wondering why instagram is still only formatted for phones and is still horrible for tablets 😮
@@nattycozy1not for android tablets seems to be only for ipads
Love the P&Co T-shirt!
Thanks! Love their stuff
Most of my day-to-day work is typing and using apps like Google Docs, Notion, etc. I’ve basically completely replaced my work computer with an iPad Air M1 which I bring to the office and use with a keyboard, magic trackpad, and external display. It’s great.
64gb or 256gb?
Awesome tips! Can you make a video like this for an iPhone? I feel like they have a lot of hidden features too and you have actually useful tips.
Good idea! I'll look into it
which mouse pad is it? looks good
Since iPad mini 6 added cellular I don’t use a phone no more, this pad became my daily driver and replace pc and phone for me. Battery last all day plus 8.3 inch screen sold me.
What is the app name of the first game u showed in this video?wanna try that!
The ESR Magnetic Rebound keyboard/Trackpad Case right now is i think the second best keyboard case for the iPad(s), behind Apple’s 1st party options..
Nice, I'll check it out
I liked the split screen option surface pro had them but since windows 11 no more or not even tablet mode. I use pro for studying its very efficient.
Hey there 👋 can you walk through the shortcut to change the homescreen layout?
How did You configure shortcut, to swap between gaming icons and productivity icons? Please help :)
@Byte Review do you use screen protector for your ipad? is it needed?
Is the iPad Air m1 any good. I hate taking my Mac out of the house so much
I find it hard to find things on my iPad. Would you do a presentation on how to keep files and photos in a form that is easy to navigate and searchable?
I definitely agree that a keyboard is essential, but I still can't justify one of the keyboard cases while the Logitech MXkeys mini/k380 exist. a seperate keyboard is worth the extra bag space for me, Really enjoying Freeflow too, it definitely fits my 'organised chaos' style of note taking.
Yeah I think Logitech are making some awesome stuff! And I still need to get my claws into freeform, enjoying it so far though
@tomtrials I use the K380 and love it
Freeflow is awesome for sure, I use a bunch of FigJam for work so it was awesome to have an apple native version for my personal use
Yea agree. I kinda got a portable stand and keyboard instead as my solution. I also kinda don’t want to turn the iPad into a laptop so the Magic Keyboard doesn’t fit my needs. I don’t want to keep putting it in and out all the time.
I love the iPad
Can I write on ipad video after screen recording like in Samsung tablet ?! Thanks
4:06 Does external monitor support work when going through a dock (like the Satechi dock in your recent video)?
Great
Another great video. I'm still loving both my M1 iPad Air and my iPad mini. This semester several of my grad school textbooks are online only so the iPad air is now a vital part of my tech stack. I just wish I could use the Apple Pencil in the Kindle app! I do a lot of highlighting when I read online and Kindle won't support Apple pencil! Ugh! I love using the highligher on my ipad when reading PDF's (which I import into OneNote) or when reading in Apple books...Kindle needs to get with the program!
How do you use the iPad Mini? I was planning to get one just for notetaking during lectures. Hope it's not too cramped to use because of the smaller size, since the portability seems really good to just take with you everywhere. I want to take the notes over to my MacBook to study and do other general stuff. I was looking to use the iPad Mini as a second monitor as well for my laptop. Have you tried this? I'm wondering if I can use my iPad Mini as a tablet to take notes over bigger files like textbooks and to use my MacBook as my viewer since it'll be able to display the bigger file on the entire screen unlike the iPad Mini.
I been a Android user since 2005 since iOS went to 64 bit for their apps Android apps been ported to iOS so for me was a easy switch. I’m now all in to iOS and made the iPad me my daily driver replace my phone and laptop.
Hey Tom, thank you for sharing. I find your videos really soothing to watch…and it’s been super helpful with your hidden tips!
Do you speak Japanese? I am fascinated by so many of your books and decor. What does it say on your skateboard on the wall? And your cup with Kiroku…what is that?
Keep up the good work!
Thanks! In short - nope, I don't speak any Japanese but I love the art, graphics, and general media that comes from there, Ghibli being my favourite! The skateboard says 'route one' which is the store I bought it from!
Kiroku is the brand I run where I sell wallpapers and other bits :)
@@ByteReview Thank you for your reply. I will check out your shop.
My son went to see My Neighbour Totoro live show in London when they had a run in the Barbican. He said the stage show was really clever, how they brought the cartoon to life!
Until next time then!
What monitor are u using?
The iPad Pro is one of those devices I really want to use, but for the money of an iPad Pro 256GB+ and the Magic Keyboard you can buy a lot of other great devices.... I guess the Logitech Combo Touch is a great option for a bit cheaper but then you lose having separate charging freeing up the USB-C port on the iPad.
I want to use the iPad for drawing, art. I've a smaller budget so looking at £500 price point, what's recommend?
Currently transitioning from my 2018 MBP to my M1 iPad Pro (now that is has full external monitor support 😊), it certainly is an attitude change! Great video! Thank you 🙏
My pleasure, glad the video is of some help
What’s the name of the game you were playing at the beginning with the controller?
Universal Control is an absolute game changer. The way the ipad works with full screen makes a lot of sense when it’s paired with a mac next to it. Absolutely love the way apple products works together. I’m deep into the walled garden and I wouldn’t have it any other way haha
It's fantastic isn't it!
I got both my Apple Pencil 2 for $55. I had the Apple Pencil 1 for a couple years before I got the second generation and I got that one for $50
What is that controller that looks like the super Nintendo controller?
Curious do you use a screen protector like Paperlike? If yes, does it impact the screen colours when editing photos etc?
If I put one on then I use a Paperlike (link in description) it doesn't affect colours too much but it does wash them out a little, making them look less contrasty.
Hi there, does the copy/paste/three finger only work in certain apps? I tried it in a Google doc because I use those a lot and it made the page scroll instead. Thank you for this video 😊
You're welcome! And it should do, it's a system wide gesture, unless Google Docs has it's own thing it's overriding it with 🤔
the only problem i have with focus mode shortcuts is that my shortcuts app always shows a notif when i run one :/ none of the usual fixes work
Hi there. Could you help me to figure out which iPad should I go with? I can buy an iPad air 5 for $370 and 12.9” m1 iPad Pro for $620. (Both are used and I have a macbook air as well.)
My main usage will be note taking, reading news, papers, articles, watching youtube videos and mostly for the educational purposes.
You can now swipe up from left corner to get a screen shot with your finger, if your pencil is not around. Am sure you couldn't do this before. Maybe is IOS 16 thing. Anyway super useful feature,....
that focus widget should be in a top corner so its position stays the same between desktops
I got the 8Bitdo ultimate when it came out but couldn’t get it to pair to the iPad for the life of me I did several different methods I saw but no video that showed for this specific controller. So I returned it and went with an Xbox controller. I really wanted to love the 8bitdo 😢
Question and I apologize if I missed it but...do you use a digital calendar and if you do does it sync with your calendar. I work in an office and combine and use paper notes, digital planner and iphone all day and every day.
I have been able to sync Google Calendar on my iPad and iPhone. You can use Apple's Calendar app or there is also a version of Google Calendar available for the iPad and iPhone. I also use Google Keep for keeping sticky notes. For note taking, I use Notability and PDF Expert, which works great!
Is this 11 inch or 12.5?
CAN I ASK, DO YOU HAVE ANY VIDEOS ON EXTERNAL STORAGE?
I HAVE A M1 12.9 PRO CEL/WI-FI WITH 128GB & I WAS WONDERING WOULD I
NEED ANY MORE STORAGE THAN THAT.
I DON’T USE IS FOR ANYTHING MAJOR ALTHOUGH I DO HAVE A GROWING
PROCREATE COLLECTION.
I KNEW IF ANYONE COULD GIVE ME ADVICE YOU WOULD BE THAT GUY.
I’D APPRECIATE IT.
You should make a video on best games for Apple Arcade.
Interesting idea!
Can i see your desk setup/ room tour.
Bro, i am facing issues with "Freeform" hanging up even in my Ipad pro M1 12.9 inch and also older ipads. Many of my frds too facing the same issue with "Freefrom" . It looks buggy.
Its not smooth as i thought. Hence moved to a paid NEBO app which also have a white board and its very smooth to work with without any lagging..
3:29 Did you just switch between Stage Manager apps with a swipe on the trackpad? If yes, would you share how you do it? Thanks!
Yep, three finger swipe!
where did u get the cozy wallpaper in ur Mac??
Linked in description, it's actually my lofi channel!
yooooo whats the name of the first game , one with the red ninja character it looked sick
The Pathless - it's on Apple Arcade and it's awesome
What's the setting of external monitor support where you can have the iPadOS working on the computer screen? I have a MacBook, and whenever I hook on my iPad with it, it just simply works as an external monitor of the MacBook.
You can't put iPadOS on a computer, only an external monitor as such
Connect external monitor directly to the iPad (M1 and above)
Quick question, when playing genshin on the secondary display, is the aspect ration same with the ipad or the secondary display? Thank you
Same as the iPad sadly
Which calendar app do you use?
The stock Apple one
What is the game on 10:45? Seems a battle royale
I do not see any description links. Maybe I’m not looking in the right place.
Please can you explain more on why people don't like notion on iPad?
In my previous videos about Notion on iPad there's always a lot of hate for Notion on there, I think it might have some features missing?
@@ByteReview oh okay will look for the video. Thanks
My main issue with the iPad is the janky-ness of stage manager and external display support alongside the missing apps like FCP, code editors for things like Java and overall the lack of a proper OS to fully take advantage of the m1/2 chipsets
I really struggle to do long form note taking with the iPad pencil. It’s really fatiguing relative to pen and paper and the sensation of writing on glass is uncomfortable and some times greasy 😅.
I’m thinking of making the switch to remarkable. Curious if anyone else has found a better solution?!
You can try looking into the Paperlike screen protector. Ik that of artists like it
Yeah a paperlike might help with that!
Do you ever use your iPad to transfer files from an SD card or an external hard drive to another external hard drive or SD card? I'm just wondering if an iPad is capable or if there is a limit to what you can transfer from one entity to another?
Yep done it a few times, works fine 👌🏻
The limitation will be whether the devices you are plugging in can be powered by the iPad. I would suggest using a USB-C hub that has PD (power delivery) tech. I think that it would solve the power issue. Plug in the hub, plug your power cord into the hub, plug in your devices. Files should recognize them…
been asking several youtuber how can you hide this home bar at the bottom?
samsung has an option for this.
I was told you could do it if you use task manager but no reply when i asked how.
I know the trick where you enter in this mode by entering passcode but you need to do this for every app every time again and again...
You can hide it if you're in stage manager and push the windows to the bottom. Otherwise I don't think you can?
you now can take screenshot from the bottom left without the pencil too
Oooh nice!
Is there any reason my external monitor support wouldn’t work? M1 Pro and when I plug it into any screen it stays blank
Have you got a keyboard and mouse / trackpad already attached? It won’t work without those!
@@ByteReview ahh yes they’re connected to my pc and never clocked that they obviously won’t communicate through that
@@ByteReview I’ve plugged a keyboard and mouse in, they both work with the iPad but still won’t connect to the monitor
The monitor just stays black
I have iPad 2021 don’t what I can do with it
My guy
How do you accept/ choose between the auto suggestions that pop up when you type with an external keyboard on iPad?
*New to IOS and haven’t used a Mac yet. Have been searching for this answer without success…
Are you British? Love your accent 😊
Anyone having experience with using the iPad for teaching online, sharing screens, jumping from websites. How is your experience with this?
How did you create this shortcut that changes home screen setup?😮
Linked in description 🙌🏻
After 6 years of using an iPad / iPad Pro, I switched to Microsoft Surface Pro 8. It has been a downgrade with regards to power but a huge improvement in terms of productivity thanks to superior OS and professional software. I still think the iPad Pro is a non essential device...the classic iPad or iPad mini is all people really need. iPad Pro was the most frustrating computing experience Ive had in 30 years of computing, and the cost is another issue. It's simply could not keep up with my growing business as the software wasn't flexible enough. Horses for courses. If making videos and editing photos all day long is what you do, that I am sure the iPad Pro is great. If you work in geology like I do, or another specialism requiring professional software, the iPad Pro is pretty much next to useless.
I agree you can absolutely do more with a more traditional laptop like the surface pro! For me the iPad is still a complimentary device, not a replacement.
Hehe superior OS
@@sebaszwarc Windows runs 78% of the world’s computers. It powers private sector enterprise around the world. iPadOS helps teenage girls make TH-cam videos in their bedrooms. A computer OS v a smartphone OS. When you’re old enough you’ll get it.
@@thesteamingjungle9833 try running a data analytics business on an iPad 😂 - less useful than a chocolate teapot. Even a Chromebook is far more useful!
@Think Harder absolutely the WORST thing about the iPad is iPad OS. The only reason it isn't a replacement for a MacBook is that they've designed it so it can't replace a MacBook. I have both a surface pro and an iPad, and if it wasn't for the terrible surface battery life & a few iPad exclusive apps (looking at you, ForScore), my iPad would be almost useless.
