Apple has finally unveiled the much-anticipated iPadOS 15 at its WWDC (Worldwide Developers Conference) 2021 event. Alongside the new iPadOS 15, the company also unveiled the new versions of iOS, macOS, tvOS as well as watchOS. Here’s what the new iPadOS will be offering on your existing iPad models.
iPadOS 15 Supported Devices
The new iPadOS update will be available this fall for iPad mini 4 and later, iPad Air 2 and later, iPad 5th generation and later, and all iPad Pro models.
New Features
Customisable Home Screen
iPadOS 15 opens up room for more customisations on the home screen. It brings the flexibility of placing the widgets anywhere on the home screen. Notably, the iPad users were earlier able to place these widgets only in the Today View sidebar.
New Multitasking Features
One of the most important features on an iPad is the multitasking feature as it allows the users to take complete advantage of the large screen. With the new iPadOS 15 update, the company has improved its multi-tasking capabilities by bringing new icons to go into split-view mode. The new update also adds a new shelf feature, which will make it much easier to multi-task within iPadOS.
App Library
Apple shook the iPhone users by bringing the App Library to iOS 14. The users were able to clear the clutter from their home screen and have a much more organized app drawer. Apple is bringing the same App Library from iOS to iPadOS 15. Just like on iOS, the iPad users will now be able to clear the clutter from their home screen.
