However, the thing I’m most excited about right now is what they’re doing with iPadOS. The multitasking changes look fantastic for productivity on the system. Freely resizable and overlapping windows! We finally got it, and it already works pretty well. I am eager to see how this feels once settling into some real work, but I can already tell I’ll finally want to get a Magic Keyboard.
The window system looks nice.
Also, AUDIO IMPROVEMENTS??? For PODCASTERS???? I can’t believe after over a decade of asking, they actually did it. Later this year, it could genuinely be possible for me to record a podcast over Zoom and have a local recording to share for editing. I am thrilled this day has finally come. Maybe there is a future where I won’t need both my Mac and my iPad on a trip—I can actually just choose what feels right. I can’t wait to see what Federico ends up doing.
Woah this came out of nowhere. It's been a long time coming. I'm keen to check this out further.
I am also intrigued to learn more about how developers can leverage Apple Intelligence models and exactly what they can be used for. On the surface, this feels like a big win for the community.
If you can run models on device for free and they're good then this is a huge win for developers.
I also just noticed that they're supporting background tasks on iPad. This is again long overdue but this is incredible for podcasters and video people.
