It feels so close, doesn’t it? My biggest gripe is that iOS doesn’t have proper support for external displays.

iOS 16 fixes that.

Proper external display support was pulled from the initial release of iPadOS 16 because it was super buggy.

From the press release: > Full external display support for Stage Manager on M1 and M2 iPad models will be available in a software update later this year.

Not in the initial release. They pulled external display support from Stage Manager in later betas to get it working on older models with the A12X and A12Z instead of only the M1 and newer.

External display support is supposed to come back in an update later this year. Presumably that part will still require an M1 or newer processor.

as an ipad mini owner, i selfishly hope they make it work on the a15 as well. I don’t know how unfavorably that chip compares to the a12z, but it seems very fast on the ipad mini.
