@siracusa Ditto for an #iPad or any #tablet (or phone) without a hardware keyboard. I actually find the iPad’s soft keyboard slower and more clumsy to type on than an #iPhone’s.

#iPad migration 5/ This whole thing took a day or so. A ridiculous experience. /end

John Goerzen
7 hours ago

#iPad migration 4/ So after a couple of attempts, I restart the migration and now it requires installing iPadOS 17.0.1. It downloads it, claims to be installing, then hangs with a spinner at the "installing" thing. For hours. Canceling means wipe & reset. I tried this 3 times and couldn't ever get past there. I eventually had to wipe, set up without migrating, upgrade to a later iPadOS 16 version, upgrade to iPadOS 17.0.1, then wipe, then migrate, and then that FINALLY worked.

#iPad migration 3/ Do I want custom or standard migration of settings? I hit custom, then quickly realized, no, I really want standard. I hit Back, except back didn't take me back to that question... it took me back to the start. At that point, I got in an endless loop of going between the very first screen and a settings question, and couldn't get out of it. The only way to do that was to cancel migration, which meant wipe & reset. Meanwhile, old iPad thought it was done.

#iPad migration 2/ First, a minor issue: when held horizontally, the on-screen keyboard caused most of the "next" buttons to be hidden. Then it says, bring the old iPad "near" and they should see each other. OK, I did, and... nothing. Well I guess it takes 2 or 3 minutes but eventually they saw each other. Then I can choose to migrate over from the old iPad. OK, tap.

For years, I have had exactly one #Apple device: an #iPad that I use for flying (because there's nothing as good as #ForeFlight on #Android). My old iPad is somewhere near 10 years old and showing its age. I got a new one and, oh my goodness, the activation and migration process was TERRIBLE. Anybody that tries to say that Apple stuff just works has clearly not tried to migrate one iPad to another. Here's how it went: 1/

Experimental iPad Configurations
Before I dive into the discussion of my ongoing experimentation with iPad modularity I think it would be helpful to provide a description of the physical space and context of my iPad use.

I work from a 200 sq ft tiny house which I share with 2 dogs and a cat. Over the past 15 years most of my work time is either in this small space or outside on a porch. In the house, only about 30% of my work...

#iPad #Apple #TinyLiving #TinyHouse

A first generation iPad is docked to the Apple Keyboard Dock for iPad. It's sitting on a wood plank table in front of a bowl of apples and near a window showing a view of trees and grass in the near distance.
An iPad sits on a wood shelf that is attached to a large dobsonian telescope base which is below the bottom of photo, not visible. The wood plank is held up with a pipe. So that it is at standing level. The telescope is at an angle away from the iPad.
An iPad sits in a stand placed on two books near a window and on an old wood plank shelf or desk. In front of the books is a keyboard. A soft warm light out of frame on the left side. Plants are visible to the left and right of the window and iPad.
A plank of wood serves as an improvised lap desk. An iPad sits to the right, a blue coffee mug to the left and a keyboard in front.

Pages and Publisher on the iPad Compared Pt 2:

Why Affinity Publisher?

Simply put Publisher offers nearly everything I need and want for designing documents on the iPad. No app is perfect but Publisher is excellent and a real pleasure to use.

I'm not sure if this is a bug in iPadOS 17 or with Fantastical, but it looks like upgrading to Fantastical made it so all existing Fantastical widgets on my home screen were displayed as blank widgets. I went to edit my widgets to see if I had to re-add it or something and Fantastical was removed as an app in the widget select screen.

I restarted my iPad and tried again and was able to select Fantastical widgets again.

I've been using Pages since the first version available on the Mac many years ago. And of course I used the first version that was available on the iPad from day one.

Working on a fun and hopefully helpful two-part article. The overall topic is a comparison of Apple Pages to Affinity Publisher. Though specific to the apps on the iPad it generalizes pretty well to the Mac.

Part one is centered from the perspective of Pages and I've written the post in Pages and designed it in Pages as a sort of 3 page example of what a user can do in terms of laying out a document with the app. I'll have that as a viewable/downloadable pdf.

And ultimately it comes down to the gulf between what I think an #iPad is capable of, and what #Apple want it to do.

At this stage, iPads have M1/M2 processors, and are more than capable of running macOS, but Apple are more concerned about product lines eating into each others profits than making one device that can do everything. They have essentially the same hardware as my MacBook, but are crippled by an OS that Apple have on a tight leash.

Now that I'm 52, I've learned to recognize this dynamic, from the #EternalSeptember:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eternal_September

to the moral panic over menuing systems replacing CLIs:

to the culture wars over what would happen when the net got a normie-friendly GUI:

And yeah, I've done it too, explaining "Why I won’t buy an #iPad (and think you shouldn’t, either)":

I’ve been trialing both @Tutanota and @protonmail as a replacement for #Google and #iCloud mail and calendar and I am torn:

#ProtonMail has an excellent (but less secure than Tutanota) bridge app that integrates Proton Mail directly into my desktop mail client, but their #iPad app is not to my liking & it doesn’t have a native #Linux client.

#Tutanota has a superior iPad app IMO, but their desktop app PALES in comparison to #Thunderbird with the Proton Bridge.

iPad is a great device to measure the responsivity level of a UI. It's "a big mobile phone" in portrait mode and "a small desktop" in landscape mode. It has a multi-touch screen but can also use with a pointer. It can be used with the on-screen keyboard and an external keyboard. UI developers should target to have a successful app on iPads. #ipad #frontend #ui

Might switch to an 11-inch #iPadPro (14 day return policy). I love the 12.9, but for my uses it has some portability challenges. #Apple #iPad

Two iPads sitting next to each other in Magic Keyboards, one 11-inch on left and 12.9-inch on right. They are transferring data between the two so I can basically grab the new one and go.
