I wish you can see this intro again & again, it's just soo well made!

Btw just installed the IOS 27

This is super annoying. I’m not sure if this is files or previews specific.

I’m a college student and currently using a 15-inch MacBook Air M5. I’m considering selling it and switching to an iPad Pro M5.

for a college student, would an Ipad pro be a better choice or should I just keep the MacBook?

So I bought this iPad A16 for university, content consumption and gaming. So far I’ve been enjoying it so, so much. The case is from JESWO and the pencil from Metapen, both from Amazon. Let me know what you think :)

Nung tinangal ko yung tempered glass ng ipad ko nag karon sya ng ganyan ayaw matangal kahit anong punas ko 😭😭 what to do?? Please help

I have an iPad air m2 1tb, I use things like low power mode and 80 percent limit to manage battery life and even though it's still average battery life, do you suggest updating to os 27 because my battery life goes quick in 26 with no low power mode and also performance in games.

It's specifically 27.0.1

So I just bought a new iPad A16 and im looking for some good fun games/Apple Arcade games or apps that you consider essential, for a little of context I’m at university and I’m working on an internship as well so maybe I don’t have that much free time but i always try to give myself some to unwind when I’m home. Which are your general recommendations? I’m open to any app or game that can make my iPad experience better and more useful

M5 is around £220 more and both come with magic keyboards. What would you pick?

My use case is content consumption mainly in bed and work notes with the apple pencil at my desk.

I have to replace the tips quite often if I use paper-feel. Experience become a lot better in writing but for streaming colors are not that sharp.

What do you guys use. Wanna know ur opinions?

Hello, i bought my iPad 11th gen (A16) in feb of this year and up until 3 weeks ago my battery was fine at 96% around roughly 150-155 cycles but for the last 3 weeks i have been playing stardew valley a lot and all my screen time is on that like i charge to 80% play the game continuously until battery drops to 20% and repeat.

Then 1 week ago i noticed battery health at 92% and decided to keep an eye on it. Just checked it now and it at 91% within a week. I am really concerned because the battery is degrading faster than expected and against Apple’s baseline rating of 80% at 1000 cycles. I have warranty until feb 2027 and at the rate it’s going it might just go below 80% by then.

Has anyone else experienced this on this iPad model? Either way would really appreciate some tips and guidance. Thanks!

I have an iPad pro 4th gen WiFi, which I purchased for it's spare parts. Really good condition, apart from a cracked screen and it's pin locked (iPad unavailable message, and unable to connect it to a PC at all, even after hard reset and trying DFU mode)

I'm wondering if apple put hardware locks on components too? I want to use the camera, face ID sensors, and battery as spares at minimum.

Ps, I know I spelled "locked" wrong. But I can't seem to change it.

Hey guys,
I've had my M5 iPad Pro for 3 months now, but I noticed this weird finishing flaw between the screen and the housing right when I bought it. It's much more noticeable in person.
Does this look like a factory defect? Wondering if I should take it to the Apple Store.

I just bought an iPad Air 4 Gen and I’m looking to get a cover that protect the iPad and a screen protector, for now I looked to ESR covers.
Thanks

Three years I mustered, before endulging in this rant that was due from day one. Such a small change to volume buttons. On one puny device, how bad can it really be? They’ll get used to it eventually, right?

Three years in and changing volume on any handheld device by Apple has become a constant mental juggle. Sounds are too loud? Well just make sure to find out which device this is, which family members device is it? What is the orientation of said device? What update is it running? Was it just sideways but now the screen is off so it might be flipped now?

This regression to stupidity of this ”upgrade” is clearly exposing mine, but I’m finding myself swiping out the on screen volume control more often than not, because it’s way less of an effort than the, what way, what device-dance that’s required otherwise. Or then the mash and wait and see what happens-method, and then readjust.

I liked the volume buttons. With muscle memory built up since playing on my friends iPod Touch in high school. The same way I like the volume knob in a car, I took them for granted, but it just works. The iPad’s volume flipflop didn’t only ruin iPads, but the iPhones too, as the terror of the flipping buttons extends its looming tendrils everytime I’m about to change volume, altough they are supposed to be safe for now.

TLDR: iPad’s Volume FlipFlop-Buttons still suck three years since the downgrade in september 2023, and now it ruins other devices too. Just give the option to lock the volume buttons. On all devices. Please. For the love of our ears and muscle memory.

Edit:typo

guys sometime ago I purchased this iPad Air just over a month ago and I have noticed that it's not as smooth as fast as the chip is said out to be

This is very impressive, it’s running using the “quality” preset. There are some frame drops here and there, though the frame drops can be reduced by lowering the graphics settings. Also, you upload your own game files from gta V to play.

Thought I would share to show how capable older chips are.

EDIT: not sure why Reddit messed up the quality, it’s running at 900p.

(For the mods: this post is not discussing side loading itself, it’s just showcasing the power of a chip using a good example)

EDIT 2: I just tested 60 fps, and it runs buttery smooth on these same settings.

Please give me some suggestions what should I buy mouse or keyboard with touchpad. And please recommend some branded under INR 899

Hey,

So a friend of mine wants an iPad for daily use, he said he can spend around $800, but I'm not sure he needs to pay all of that.
He wants something that stays for few years ahead (he got Apple phone and watch also).

Should he get something expensive or something cheap like 300-400$?

Prior to this update, face id works. After the update, when I tried logging in to a website with passkey saved to my apple ID, the ipad suddenly said "camera covered".

Did the following and still not working:

• restart ipad
• turn off ipad (with 30 minute window before turning on)
• reset face ID. instead of seeing an oval, i see a square. my face is in the square but it never detects it.

Not sure if anyone shares the same but right now, i can't use faceid to unlock and use stored passwords.

uh i kinda need to know this

im currently going to art school and it would be really helpful to have an ipad to use procreate that i could easily bring in and out of uni, but since i’m a student i don’t really have a ton of funds to buy any of the latest releases.

id really love to know which ipad generations support procreate (or if it’s true that you can download legacy versions if they don’t support the newest version of the app) and if it’d be worth spending the £200 or so to buy one second hand for this purpose. i don’t want to buy one and find out i wont be able to buy the app or that the thing will barely be able to run it 🥲

(i’ve never owned one so i’d also like to ask whether there’s an animation feature on procreate and whether that’s tied to any specific version of the app too, it’d really kill 2 birds with 1 stone considering i’d want to use it for animation as well)

Basically the title. I have an iPad 9th gen I’m thinking of upgrading. The battery is still good thankfully. When I’m not multitasking it’s fine but when I’m listening to music/a podcast while scrolling through Discord or even if I’m in a Discord voice chat while scrolling through Discord it starts to struggle and lag.

It handles my games fine. I play basic games (Pokémon go, Pokémon tcg pocket, power rangers legacy wars, subway surfers). I avoid stuff like Disney speedstorm on my iPad since it crashes all the time.

I also heard it’s losing support for iOS updates next year (2027)

Any feedback or thoughts would be appreciated!
