2024 iPad Pro M4 - 25+ Settings You Need To Know

[@Aaron_Bleu]

From someone who works in tech and has been using an iPad daily since the first one released so many years ago, I still learn so much from your videos. Thank you Aaron

Probably only worth it if you use your iPad outside a lot.

No.

I have triple click top button set to reduce white point. It really helps dim the screen at night

Omgosh! I didn’t realize True Tone wasn’t actually color accurate. I’ve been using it with the intention of it being most accurate. 😭

I'm a new IPad pro user, bought it for movies, is the dolby vision & atmos automatically enabled?

Just got my hands on the new M4 iPad Pro and these settings are super helpful, especially the battery health feature and the display adjustments. Really appreciate you taking the time to explain everything so thoroughly!

[@PeaceChildGuy]

Great video. What a guy ! 😎🌵

[@zollotech]

Wow. Thank you

[@aaronmelson2887]

I have the M2 11inch pro. I use mine to edit videos so I have no use for the M4 but I am happy they finally added battery health.

[@bruceinmyheart]

Yes, they added this feature to the M2 iPad Air also. Too bad the M2 iPad Pro is too weak to run this feature 😢

[@BSingh-on4qr]

@@bruceinmyheartYou’re being sarcastic, right?

[@JdilpkleRS]

I have used my old iPad at the podium while teaching and the reflection and glare on the screen from the stage lights made things tough. I had to try to position or prop up the iPad to be able to get to where I could see it. Food for thought.

[@Airius84329]

Not sure if anyone else has noticed, but just randomly using my Apple Pencil Pro on the M2 Air 11”, and noticed I got haptic feedback when long pressing the Home Screen icons with the Pencil. Same with previewing photos and web links; thought that was pretty cool to give a little bit of that familiar iPhone haptic to the new iPads, if not indirectly through the Pencil.

[@spede1]

I just got an iPad Pro and these are great tips, thank you

[@jimmatherly]

Hey Aaron. Do you use a screen protector on your iPad? I don’t want to take away from the Tandem OLED. What’s your advice? Do any of your other devices have scratches if you don’t use protectors?

[@zollotech]

I don't use one

I wish they’d let us turn off that volume feature where the volume up button is volume down and vise versa when in landscape mode

[@susanmcquaig2927]

I definitely agree. Why in the world did the do it.

[@MeandroLOL]

This screen looks really comfortable for recording videos in the studio

[@GlassfilmWeddings]

Man that Nano texture looks horrible.

[@Henry14arsenal2007]

This video has the benefit of actually showing the functionality and usefulness of the device by accident and is much more informative than the million "reviews" that are churned out on every release cycle.

[@RiannaNicole]

I love spotlight search on both my Mac’s and iPad Pro 6th gen.

How much watt does the ipad pro 13 inch take? people say 40w some say 20w its not confirmed, can you confirm?

[@jasonmcginnis4557]

Thanks so much Aaron! You always do such a good job with these videos. And every time I watch one of yours, I always learn something new by the way just FYI, the double tap on the pencil been out for years. It’s not a new feature.

[@albibushi157]

can you write data into Excel or Numbers using apple pencil pro?

[@FreedomwithRob]

I’m new to iPadOS. I haven’t had a iPad in years. I want to get the new iPad M4 13in. Does iPadOS support RTF? Rich Text Format? I haven’t gotten a iPad because I worry I can’t copy RTF texts from websites & paste into notes, other browsers, etc. Aron do you know this answer? Thank you! I love ❤️ all your videos!

[@SaMaster18]

I’ve been an iPad Pro user since the first gen and also beta test iOS/iPadOS, but this video still introduced me to some new settings I hadn’t found/thought about. Thanks, as always!

[@jeffreylukas6958]

Saw the apple pencil attached on the side of the ipad, is it apple pencil 2nd generation and can it be charged just by sticking it on the side?

Thank you. Is there a way we can reverse the volume setting? It seems weird when you watching something you have to click the left button to turn it down and right button to turn it up. Thank you.

These ‘tips’ videos are incredibly helpful! Thanks so much.

[@bturner908]

Excellent video! Your information is neat, concise, and spot-on. Thank you, Aaron!

[@Richard_Barnes]

A very helpful video in my testing of the new M4 in 13” size. I had forgotten about the setting to allow my iPad to get the iMessages so that would have annoyed me when it wouldn’t work at some point. Thanks Aaron for the work in these video’s, it’s appreciated 😀👍

[@jimtipton8888]

Love to see a video on Widgets. I love and use them, especially the expanded shortcut widget. Great as always!

I’m trading in my M1 12.9 iPad Pro for the new M4 13” iPad Pro…really looking forward to the upgrade!!!

[@Jeannemarre]

What about using the iPad on charge at 80% with the limit enabled, is it still pulling juice from the battery or is it bypassing and taking sector power only ? Wondering as i can still see the lightning logo on the iPad I am using the iPad at my desk on a monitor, so keeping it plugged in would be ideal

[@taraharpphotography9456]

This was an amazing walk through. Very straight forward and informative. I initially purchased the IPad with the nano textured but the color was not as vibrant which is a huge part of my business. I returned and got the stand OLED, but the colors were still off. Upon examining all the settings I discovered that “Color Filter” is turned on by default which is located in the Accessibility under display and text. Once I turned that off the colors are vibrant and more true to color. Maybe that was the issue the whole time with the nano textured on. Dear Apple, do not turn that feature on by default. Please and thank you you!

[@lizdouglas1952]

I just received the ipad Pro 2024 in space black, standard glass. I set it up myself, and didn't want any transfer from my Apple MacBook Air. But, it did...pictures and all. I called Apple and asked what to use on my screen to clean.The representative told me Isopropyl alcohol 70% with soft cloth. My screen then was clean, but it doesn't look glossy?? Help! Suggestions? Thank you for your helpful video. 😘

[@peezy5150]

Hey Aaron, since you have both models can you or have you already dedicated any time to the 11inch iPad Pro??

What’s interesting is that the battery health section in settings is still not present on the M2 IPad Pros when it could seemingly be easily added in an update! :)

[@chrismarano2135]

Very helpful! Thanks!

[@BommeltjeNL]

Thanks for all the tips. Appreciated 👍 I never used spotlight very much, but since it’s on the keyboard and the shortcut Cmd+Space, I’m using it more often. Love the quick way to transform fahrenheit, pounds, miles, etc. into European celsius, kilograms, kilometers, etc. That’s very handy since I’m watching tons of American videos with these measurements and I’m always converting these to know exactly what they are talking about. Does spotlight also have something for translating English text in (for me) Dutch language?

[@rifkihendriansyah5417]

I already turn on the battery 80% limit but it keeping charging over 80%, did u know why?

[@AmitojSingh_2402]

Hi, what does the new nano-texture display feel like irl? Like does it feel more smoother and better on our fingers than glass or is it mainly the 'anti reflective' property of it that makes it worth it

[@brotherurth1625]

Hi Arron, I’m upgrading from a 10.9” iPad to a 13” iPad Air, I asked in the Apple Store about not initially installing the latest update on the Air and was told this isn’t possible and that it won’t let me skip it to begin with. I’m confused now, as you’ve implied I could do that. I’m based in the UK, not sure if that makes any difference?

[@jamesbarrett9783]

Thanks Aaron, some great tips there. Good to be reminder when setting up a new device such as the new iPad Pro 13” M4. Love your videos and keep up the good work :)

[@mikea8294]

This was very helpful. However, I noticed that I don't have the Larger display zoom option under Display & Brightness even though I am on 17.5. As I have the 11" iPad Pro, that option may be specific to the 13" iPads. I also do not have the pointer control customizations under Accessibility or Lock White Balance option under Camera. I am not sure why this is the case, though.

[@angelazuniga-jones9539]

I also don’t have the larger display zoom so I am guessing it is a 13”option only. The pointer customization might only appear if a pointer is attached to the device (like a Bluetooth mouse or the Magic Keyboard). I do see the option for lock white balance in my camera settings. Maybe try restarting the device?

[@jmeister889]

Where do I enable ProRes?

[@joshuadake]

Hi Aaron! Are you experiencing any screen issues with the Oled panels on the iPads? My screen is really dim even at full brightness and has a yellow screen. Really disappointing since the mini led was near perfect. Thanks!

[@ferdinandefendi3942]

How to show number keys in your keyboard?

[@billb8083]

Can we have multiple user accounts ? A guest mode ?

[@SaMaster18]

Reflections/glare were never any issue for me with an iPad, so even though I knew I was getting the 1TB option, I went for standard glass. Saw them both side-by-side at the Apple Store beforehand, and while it isn’t as drastic as I thought it would be, you do lose some of the rich colors and deep blacks with the standard tandem OLED display. Glad I went for the “standard” glass. That being said, seeing a nano texture display doesn’t necessarily “turn me off”

[@jimbrow83]

M4 ipad 11 inch doesnt have the larger text option only default or more space option must only be for the 13 inch

[@RameshKumar-ng3nf]

I am waiting for the new ipad mini release this year, with more battery power and more bright screen for outdoor usability. I feel more productive using ipads for its portability and when we used the apple pencil . Not a fan of magic keyboards , rather than that i would prefer using a macbook air M3 for serious works.

How does it feel to write with an Apple Pencil Pro on the nano textured display? Is it better or worse compared to the writing on direct glass?

Great video Aaron! I like the new M4 iPad Pro. The Pencil Pro has so many innovations that probably any other stylus right now can’t do. I think it’s cool how you can just rotate your brushstroke and the squeeze feature is great too.

I have a question, ipad pro m4 11inch or ipad pro m2 12,9inch the price is the same on both in my country. So guys what do you think, which one to pick?

[@ray737]

Probably depends on how mobile you like to be. I tried the bigger iPad 12.9 as well as 13.0. Beautiful big screen but feels heavy in your hand if you like to be on the go and truly mobile traveling consuming content while in the couch or in bed. I have the new 11 inch M4 upgraded from 2018 pro.

[@planinshek]

If you’re mostly at a desk go big. Portable go with 11”

[@karlleiserbach1411]

If likeToDraw{ buy13() } else{ buy11() }

[@sigiligus]

12.9” is too big to use as a tablet. So if you get one, you basically end up with a bad laptop (with a great screen). Honestly, unless you need a huge touch screen for a specific reason, get the 11” or a Macbook.

[@jeysmoothies]

The nano coating defeats the purpose of the oled screen. The coating makes it looks like an off black or gray/navy
