Windows, a menu bar, a real cursor. It’s basically MacOS touch now. Good.

I had literally had my credit card out and ready in 2010 during the iPad announcement until I learned that it was a giant iPhone. Fifteen years later, and it's finally a real computer.

It is not, it still only runs AppStore apps.

Does this work on ipads without mission control (ios 18 multi window mode i forgot name).

Curios how this will work on ipad 9

The details.

New software features will be available this fall as a free software update for iPad Pro (M4), iPad Pro 12.9-inch (3rd generation and later), iPad Pro 11-inch (1st generation and later), iPad Air (M2 and later), iPad Air (3rd generation and later), iPad (A16), iPad (8th generation and later), iPad mini (A17 Pro), and iPad mini (5th generation and later). The Apple Intelligence features detailed require supported devices, which include all iPhone 16 models, iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max, iPad mini (A17 Pro), and iPad and Mac models with M1 and later that have Apple Intelligence enabled and Siri and device language set to the same supported language: English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese (Brazil), Spanish, Japanese, Korean, or Chinese (simplified). More languages will be coming by the end of this year: Danish, Dutch, Norwegian, Portuguese (Portugal), Swedish, Turkish, Chinese (traditional), and Vietnamese.

Stage Manager.

My 6th gen mini simply didn't have enough power for that, so I'm assuming it'll get fucked in the ass again by this OS.

My 6th gen gained windowed mode and Stage Manager with iPadOS 26. Not sure whether Apple will remove it again in a future Beta version, though.
