iPad, for me, is the most versatile gadget I own. Its form factor makes it the first choice for reading, surfing, games, and watching videos. It is a perfect mix of portability and power. I have been using the iPad a lot in the past year and was really excited when the new update was announced. I was waiting eagerly to get my hands on the new iPadOS 15. Now, that I am using it, I am even more excited about my future with the iPad 😛.

Let’s get into it, one at a time…

Multi-tasking is even smoother

The new multitasking setup is amazing. With a new UI element, that appears at the top of the window, a simple 3-dot layout, that will give you 3 easy options. Full-screen, split-screen, and side overlay. Putting a single app into split-screen using the new menu takes you to the home screen to select a second app. You can also drag and drop apps when you’re in the app switching window to create new split-screen or full-screen combinations.
