With iPadOS 15, Apple has given the world’s best tablet operating system some very significant upgrades. Productivity features that were previously only available on the iPhone are now on your tablet too, and you’ll find that everything from productivity apps to privacy protections have been given important improvements. iPadOS 15 is about making your iPad work the way you want it to. Home Screen Widgets can completely customise the information you get, the App Library can make it easier to organise and access your apps, and the improved multitasking features make it easier to work with multiple apps at the same time. Streamlined Notifications are much easier to manage, and the new Focus mode enables you to decide who and what can contact you at different times and places.
Some of the new features are dramatic, such as the redesigned tabs in Safari, the new Quick Note feature and the ability to set up shared listening and viewing parties in FaceTime. Others are more subtle, such as the privacy improvements in iCloud+, and the ability to customise your memories in Photos. But whether you use your iPad for work, for school, for creating things or for keeping yourself entertained, the improvements here will make you love your iPad even more.
