Apple’s iPadOS 15 will bring a range of new features to the iPad. Apple is also updating some existing features to give them improved functionality, one of these is Multitasking.
The guys from MacRumors have put together a great video giving us a look at what changes are coming to Multitasking on the iPad in iPadOS 15. Let’s find out some more details.
As we can see from the video, there are a number of improvements coming to multitasking on the iPad in the next major release of iPadOS.
Enhanced Multitasking Features
One of the most significant updates in iPadOS 15 is the enhanced multitasking capabilities. Apple has introduced a new multitasking menu that appears at the top of apps, making it easier to enter Split View or Slide Over. This new menu allows users to quickly switch between different multitasking modes without having to use complicated gestures.
Additionally, the App Switcher has been redesigned to include Split View and Slide Over apps, making it simpler to manage multiple apps at once. Users can now create Split View spaces directly from the App Switcher, streamlining the process of working with multiple applications simultaneously.
Another notable feature is the new Shelf, which provides quick access to all open windows of an app. This is particularly useful for apps like Safari or Pages, where users might have multiple documents or web pages open at the same time. The Shelf appears at the bottom of the screen and can be accessed with a simple swipe, making multitasking more intuitive and efficient.
Other New Features in iPadOS 15
In addition to the multitasking improvements, iPadOS 15 brings several other exciting features to the iPad. One of these is the updated Widgets and App Library. Widgets can now be placed anywhere on the Home Screen, allowing for a more personalized and functional layout. The App Library, which was introduced in iOS 14, is now available on the iPad, providing an organized view of all installed apps.
Another new feature is QuickNote, which allows users to quickly jot down notes from any app or screen. By swiping up from the corner of the screen with an Apple Pencil or finger, users can create a QuickNote that is automatically saved in the Notes app. This feature is designed to make note-taking more seamless and integrated into the overall iPad experience.
iPadOS 15 also introduces improvements to FaceTime, including spatial audio, Voice Isolation, and Wide Spectrum modes. These enhancements aim to make FaceTime calls more natural and immersive. Additionally, SharePlay allows users to share content like music, movies, and TV shows during a FaceTime call, creating a more interactive and shared experience.
We are expecting the iPadOS 15 software update to be released sometime in September, along with the new iOS 15 update and the new iPhone 13 devices. This release is highly anticipated as it promises to bring a host of new features and improvements that will enhance the overall user experience on the iPad.
