Great video Owen, you're a very affable presenter. I get why Mac OS doesn't come to iPad but could Apple make Mac OS 'touch-friendly' without destroying the iPad sales? I see no reason why not since iPads would remain mainly a consumption device, would be thinner and lighter. It *might* dent iPad pro sales a little but I wonder what proportion of iPad sales are iPad Pro?

I think that the iPad shouldn’t have Mac OS but as the same time iPad os is so limited when you compare the two OS. The iPad could do as much things as an Mac but the real problem are the apps and I just realized this a few days ago. For example the mail app on both systems works in a very similar way but when you look at the iPad app then you can see the lack of functions that are not there. The app could be ok on an iPhone because you are not going to do a lot of stuff like in a computer but in an iPad this is so limiting. In another hand we have the multitasking which it’s ok and it get better on M1+ iPads but it could be better. Sorry for my long explanation and hope you understand my point of view

That is part of it, but there are more logical answer for the real reason. The display generate a lot ofnheat too, and that makes a huge difference in usage, if that 4W heat from display is generated next to the chip (tablet) or far away from the chip (macbook with independent display far away from the SoC). That 4W power consumption means a tons of more throttling for iPad, since the SoC need to generate 4W less to compansate that too, which means you can't get the same experience, if the OS allow you to do the same demanding things like the Macbook, it will throttle way more, which gives you a worst experience in total..

Lots of good points, App Store, money, etc. Yep yep. But what y’all are missing is that the whole point of the iPad is to have a larger around-the-home (+ travel) portable device with a *touch interface.* The touch interface is what makes the iPad portable. Yes, you can attach a keyboard when you need one (I am using a keyboard right now on my iPad). For longer texts. But the apps need to be designed quite differently for a touch interface than for a mouse interface. Because touch points need to be larger than mouse-clickable buttons. And you can reach both near and far points very easily with a mouse, with very little hand movement, while crossing an 11 inch screen with your hand or the Apple pencil is taking much more energy and time. That is also one more reason why it is difficult to fully port a Mac app to the iPad. Touch interfaces and mouse interfaces are just very different beasts. Touch doesn’t do so well with menus, for example. When people are asking for MacOS on iPad, what they are really asking for is full mouse support … a different screen layout for apps so that they can use the full power of a menus-and-buttons UI that is designed for a mouse. These are UIs that enable high productivity for many apps. (Except maybe for drawing, or interactive music making.) Apple is trying to improve the Apple pencil to give people an alternative to menus, and more fine-grained pointing. But both are limited: the menus that the Apple pencil can bring up have a limited number of items (because there is no easy way to enable fast high-precision scrolling and selecting), and pointing with a pencil held in the hand hovering over a surface is not as precise as moving a mouse over a mousepad or nudging a trackball. I believe the moment that Apple would support MacOS on iPad is the moment that iPads become tethered to mice and keyboards, and stop being portable devices. People would not turn their iPads off and switch back to iPadOS. And even if MacOS was a virtual machine on the iPad, as an app, there would be tons of problems to solve to make seamless interaction between MacOS and iPadOS apps possible. One more thing is that iPad apps live in a very different market than macOS apps. iPad apps can be the simpler home / hobby versions of the full-blown macOS apps … and sell for far less money. They can be fully functional, but when people want to go professional, they will switch over to a Mac and get the expensive pro versions. (- There are exceptions, like some drawing apps and music making modules.) And I must say, I really love this market segmenting. It gives me the opportunity to try out lots of stuff, and even finish some projects, all at a budget. And whenever I am ready, then I can go “pro” on the Mac. Or just leave it and do something else. At a budget price. Great! But ok, I hear y’all. You really really want a pro desktop experience on your portable device. But, if you think about it, you also want your touch device, right? And we don’t want to have to carry around both a laptop and an iPad, right? - Well, at least that is what I want. So, here is what I think *should* happen, the next step of the evolution. And oh man, I cannot believe that I am writing this in a youtube comment, instead of asking for real money for this. (God knows I do need money … I haven’t been healthy in more than a decade … oh well.) But here we go: I believe iPad should support both touch and mouse interfaces *in the same app,* and a way to switch or morph between the two. Yes, this is more work to develop. A lot of work needs to go into iPadOS to make this seamless switching work properly. And apps that support this also need to do a lot more work. But I honestly do believe that there is no one UI that fits all purposes. We haven’t found a way to make touch UIs as expressive and precise and professional as mouse UIs. So, to offer both on the same portable device, we need to morph between the two, depending on what the user wants or needs to do. The market segmentation could still be there: you could buy the touch version of an app and upgrade to the mouse UI morph version later, with an in-app purchase. And many apps will only offer the touch versions, because they do not make enough money to pay for the development of the mouse / morphed UI. But professional apps will have a path to offer both the portable / home and the pro experience in the same app.

Apple should, I know this sounds impossible and too costly for them, just branch out the products once again. It's either that or the iPad Pros become a part of the MacBook lineup inheriting Pencil support. This is the most likely scenario imo, if a proper computer-iPadPro is ever to happen

I have the new iPad Pro, i’m a professional freelance artist and so I use my iPad literally every single day for work. I can say with confidence that iPad OS doesn’t need to be replaced, it just needs to be better. I’ve lost count of how many bugs and unnecessary limitations i’ve run into since making the switch from a wacom on windows/macOS. From simple stuff like the youtube app missing inputs made by the pencil and magic keyboard, to annoying problems like Discord requiring images to be saved to the photos library instead of the files app, to downright broken stuff like extended display not handling HDR properly or windows resizing issues when using stage manager. The apps I need to use for work like CSP thankfully are just as capable as the desktop version, but that is unfortunately an exception and not an example. I love using the apple pencil, I can illustrate and design for hours on end. I love how fantastic the display and hardware is, it’s truly class leading. I love a lot about the iPad, but the software really is holding it back. not because it isn’t MacOS, but simply because it’s not as good as it should be.

For example, Adobe could release a version of Premiere on iPad that would be as powerful as the Mac one. I'm an Autodesk Fusion user, the Mac version is powerful but the iPad version is just a viewer... fitted for the iPhone but the iPad? Why don't editors release powerful iPad versions of their apps?

I love the explanation, editing, and cross references! It would help if Apple didn’t put such powerful chips in the devices, that on paper, compare to their MacBook lineup and then limit capabilities at the same time. If policy and company direction are holding back the iPad from becoming another “windows 8 tablet,” then don’t put so much much R&D in trying to make the “most powerful tablet ever” making leaps and bounds consistently over the years. I bet this can also help make the devices more affordable and accessible if they’re going to rely on the App Store model. It would be a drop in pride to say the device is just a refined Wacom tablet (epiphany moment 6:00 ) when using Sidecar. Overall, I believe Apple can still make money using their current model for all I care, I just wouldn’t make the iPad Pro sound like the mightiest thing ever without backing it up with the useful capabilities that “pro” users want. One thing I’d heavily suggest for the iPad Pro in particular, if I had an opinion at the table, is allowing users to remote connect into their Mac desktops. I believe that can help settle the divide between both the consumer and the company.

and now tell me how many people use Pencil to navigate their iPads. When people say "touch" in 99.9% cases they mean finger touch. And yes, Mac OS is not at all optimized for "touch".
@SaveMeAzathothАй бұрын
@@vlkhvan The reality that the pencil is inexcusably substandard at replacing single-finger interactions certainly plays a role in people not using it for navigation. It's an obvious idea that using the pencil instead of your finger for more than drawing/notes would be good for both precision and reducing screen smudging... until you try it and obvious stuff doesn't work. I lump finger touch in with stylus because they are basically the same: direct point-and-click instead of motion-and-click. Sure finger touch adds multitouch interactions ... which macos is has been optimized for for years. But you're probably going for "fingers are thick and imprecise". In the real world though, macos click targets aren't especially small and people regularly deal with tiny touch targets on their phones/tablets.

The main problem in my opinion is that Apple basically makes software development impossible on the ipad because ipad apps are not allowed to execute third-party code. They even have a special rule which allows development apps to download code, but not to execute it. So you have weird stuff like apps that execute your code but on a server, and the only real way to do actual development is with a browser and constant internet connection. It's just frustrating because there's absolutely no reason to limit it like this.

I love iPad OS for casual stuff, and for drawing, but I’d also love to kick my larger, heavier laptop to the curb and carry one device. I want two things from Apple. 1. Make the files app on the mobile OS’s more stable at moving and copying a large number of files, and 2. Give us bootcamp on the iPad do I can decide what works best for me, and I can boot into the OS that works best for what I’m doing at that moment. I used it a lot on my Intel Mac and it was lovely. I tried virtualizing Windows, but it just didn’t feel as smooth and fast. Soooo, just fix Files and give us Bootcamp! Please Apple. Please.

Good points. Files app and the central design of opening the filesystem is fundamentally broken. When they opened up the filesystem and integrated it with iCloud they absolutely should have removed all the old APIs for apps to have their own personal store. It has created a stupid two tier system where some apps store their data like files and you can have ownership over them at the OS level to move about etc and others where you are locked in like an iPhone app of years gone by, or worse have built their business model around a monthly subscription for MacBook/iPad syncing - what on Earth...? It is utterly ridiculous. Removing the hypervisor from iOS/iPadOS tells you everything you need to know about your second recommendation...

Video Editor here. Adobe Premiere. Final Cut for iPad has a LOT of potential for a single user workflow. The secret weapon that people don't talk enough about is the Apple Pencil. I'd love to see more context sensitive shortcuts and deeper menu options added to the pencil. I prefer not to use the keyboard on my iPad because you might as well use a laptop. On the other hand, as a shortcut guy, I don't like drag and drop editing either. Solution: Apple Pencil. Audio apps like FERRITE allows users to map some VERY cool functionality to the pencil, and I really hope to see a future where I can place in an out points, insert and over write edits, markers, and more with a pinch and tap of the pencil. It would make editing very zippy. iPad won't replace a laptop for intense edits. The day that apple figures out cloud based storage and cloud projects/cloud editing, is the day we'll worry less about the FILES system on iPadOS.

@@_sparrowhawk For certain types of videos, the iPad could be amazing. Being untethered from your desk has lots of appeal. And no, before you can say, "That's what laptops are for", there's a difference. Final Cut Pro 2 for iPad does a lot of things right when it comes to being built around touch. The jogwheel is chef's kiss amazing. The Apple Pencil Pro is also pretty damn cool - in OTHER apps. Not FCP. Not yet. As for the single user workflow, editing on an iPad is fantastic - hypothetically - for making rough cuts /assembly editing. The problems are manifold, though, since there's really no way to go back and forth within a project between the desktop and the iPad version. This is why I suggested CLOUD Based editing, or at least the ability to store media and project files on the cloud so that you can pull down locally and work or link to the media. I think BlackMagic does something like this. What I was referring to regarding speeding up HOW I work was all about interface. I'm *not* a drag and drop editor, but I also don't see the point of using a keyboard on an iPad. The Pencil Pro is like a SUPER Magic Mouse in concept. It has multiple pressure sensitive options between the screen and the pencil itself, that has the potential for far more functionality than just right clicking on your traditional mouse. Disregarding the file structure issues of iPadOS, once you have all of your media local, I can see a flow when you've sorted all of your footage, you've scrubbing though source, tap-squeeze for in point, squeeze again for out point, tap to drop into timeline. Squeeze pencil to pull up a submenu to change the command from insert to overwrite edit. That sort of brisk, continuous flow... iPad is comfortable. I've had gigs on my laptop (in Premiere) where I wished that I could leave my desk and scrub through media on the couch. Or, as is often the case, pull media from a variety of sources for B-roll. For example, like pulling from KZbin. A chore on the iPad, but easy on desktop. So many small but mounting 'inconveniences' with iPad editing that aren't insurmountable, but restricted only by Apple's desire to keep iPad distinct from MacOS. This was a fantastic video that explained the differences - along with Apple's financial approach - VERY clearly. Great video!

3:26 Actually this how I Mac compute and I love it. I use my iPad Pro as the main and only display for my headless M1 Mac mini with wireless sidecar via VNC. I wish Apple made this an easier out of the box connection. For example, a simple solution would be in Mission Control on the iPad Pro, I should be able to tap Screen Mirroring and “PULL” the Mac mini “screen” to my iPad if it’s on the same iCloud account and network. To start using my current setup, first I had to connect my Mac mini to my HDMI TV since I don’t have a monitor and I had to connect a mouse and a keyboard, but once set up to do all the necessary setup, I no longer need the mouse, keyboard or display to operate my Mac. I just launch VNC on my iPad Pro, type in my password and my Mac mini display shows up on my iPad and I can do all my my computing I need to. Luckily i don’t need to do anything pro and require fine touch point editing. I wouldn’t mind if to get MacOS on the iPad Pro, Apple choose this route, wired or wireless as A Main use case instead of only as an alternate use case as it is now. Give us faster 1:1 response time. When connected, the Mac OS and the iPadOS merge into one cohesive experience instead of a mirroring experience, doubling the processing while exchanging data, in a synchronize experience. I’m sure this is hard to do because a risk of data loss for unexpected Disconnection either wire or Wireless. But I’m sure Apple can make it a great user experience and they will get the sale of a Mac computer like the Mac mini or the Mac studio or whatever and the sale of iPad Pro for people who want to compute this way. An individual Mac experience as it is now, an individual iPadOS experience as it is now, and a new unique combine computing experience for those who want macOS on iPad Pro hardware. I’ve suggested this use case in Apple feedback for years, but it seems to be falling in deaf ears, so I guess the more people who request this type of computing experience of a combine macOS and iPad hardware experience would have to file their own feedback suggestion also.

Include the Apple Pencil, and it can even do many things the Mac cannot. For most users, an iPad - especially a docked iPad Pro - can replace a MacBook.
