M2 iPad Air (2024) - First 16 Things To Do! | Tips & Tricks

[@BrandonButch]

What's the first thing you did after setting up your iPad Air? 🤔

[@yasserayman7773]

I didn't do anything, because I don't have screen protector, I will not use it before I have one👀😊

[@annalo9613]

redownload all the apps that i couldn’t have on my old ipad because i didn’t have enough storage

[@Jan-ur5nz]

Mine gets really hot sometimes when I’m just browsing the internet. Is that normal?

Most practical video ever. You explain everything so well, thank you.

[@crystalclear5129]

Thank you for this video. This is my 1st iPad and you’ve definitely taught me a lot!!

[@isabelcoffiel698]

This was an incredibly knowledgeable video tutorial. I am computer literate and have a degree in computer science and I want to tell you that I learned so much from your video. So many tips and tricks. Thank you so much. I especially wanted to learn about adjusting adding and or deleting the widgets and you touched on that and everything else in detail. I recommend this to anyone who just purchased an ipad air or have an ipad and just want to learn some tips. 👍👍

[@CareyBarnett]

Great tips video. Love it. One more thing: If, in Stage Manager, you grab one of those lower corner handles, and make a window full screen, you can swipe from the left edge to reduce the window’s size. You can then just tap the window to return it to full size.

[@claym0reka]

One of the most useful videos I’ve seen to explain some basic but well hidden or overlooked items. Well done and thanks.

Glad it was helpful!

[@seekingjoynow1722]

So much info. I am pretty low tech and will need to go through this again. I am enjoying my IPAD but it is more complicated than my Samsung tablet was. Apple customer service is very good at explaining things and I called them a lot with my MacBook. Your video on the IPhone really helped me set up the phone easily. Thanks.

13" air m2😇

[@Sommitps]

I went with the 11 inch air, seems like the best price to performance ratio.. I do love the 13 inch screen, but I think the price of that is so close to the pro, that if that was the case.. you might as well go with the pro. That's how I feel personally though, so I'll use this for some years and when we get to m6-m8 versions, I'll grap a 13 inch pro by that time. I also tried (and ordered) the Pencil pro.. I love that tactile feel, despite the body of the pen being 100% identical to the 2nd version, it does feel like you are actually pressing it/something, despite that you really are not. Love it.

[@OoxB505]

Just got my M2 Air, it’s amazing 😊

[@akangkhachoudhury1258]

My ipad air M2 2024 battery lasts only around 4 hours. It drains like 20 percent in 1 hour in very light use. I am only using apple notes, ibis paint and a bit of google in it. Is it normal?

[@JoviRhys]

Crazy that the M1 iPad Pro is more than enough for anyone even power users….just upgraded to the M4 pro and the screen is the only difference albeit barely significant….speed, performance and all is exactly like the M1….Apple silicone chips peaked performance for Apple

Brandon help me, I can't decide between wifi only or wifi + cellular, I don't know if it is a good value for money to spend other 200 € to get the cellular one

[@anawaa-a4959]

how often will you be using it outside that you need data, and are you willing to pay for an added cellular line on top of the extra $200? If that sounds like it’s worth it to you, then go for it, but remember you can always just use your phone for a hotspot if you don’t have wifi

@@eggdog7888 A foundationaal cert you can get without experience like Security+ will give you a leg up. You can then go work or a cybersecurity SOC like for Blackpoint Cyber or a smaller on like us. Spend a few years there getting the benefit of a very wide set of skills across hundreds of clients and then you can start being more selective about jobs doing what you want to do. It really is that simple at the moment.

I do not use any of Apple's optimizing battery options. 15 Pro Max is still 100% and I plan on doing the same on my new iPad Air. I just charge to 85% or 90% on my own. I set a timer to remind to unplug it.

We must have to turn on optimised charging, because it don’t stop charging even when iPad is heated, when apple devices are charged while those are heated may damage battery health

2 things. 1. The battery life of my 11” M1 lasts way longer than my 13” M2. 2. The volume. My 11” M1 is much louder than the new one. If you compare it, the 50% of my 11” is on the same volume on the 80% of my 13”. On 50%, you can barely hear a thing. Does anyone have the same problems? I tried checking the sample units they have but its the same volume as well.
