Hi pals, one for the apple crew this week: but what are your favourite iPad tips that I don't cover in the video? ↓ Productive iPad community baby! 🙌 Watch this next for a better iPad workflow: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1TwVAQJ0X7A.html
I agree, the Ipad is still best used as a notetaking machine. And some might say it's expensive if it's "just that". But if you use it every working day it's definitely worth the money.
Yeah totally - I’ve used it for 3 years as my notebook, planned / storyboarded three theatre shows with it and edited 55 RU-vid videos on it… so it’s paid for itself! Cheers
Guys just an ergonomics tip: Remember to put your most important apps/widgets at the bottom of your phone/iPad to make sure they’re within reach of your thumb. This will allow you to open those more easily as compared to if they were at the top.
Awesome video! Using my Ipad Air to FINALLY (try!) to go paperless. CANNOT do it without Goodnotes and Pencil 2. I have been very happy with my results 4 months into the process.
Goodnotes RULES. I love that app. I tried Notability as well to get some perspective, and i think I enjoy GN much more for it's minimalist look and function. I use mine mainly as a digital planner/ bullet journal set up. Very handy.
I just bought an ipad for 1 weeks and switched over and over again between Books and Note and Translate app. Now i know it can work in multi app at the same time
i have to use an ipad for school and it's honestly incredible--it definitely isn't very great for apps like docs, slides, sheets, etc. because those are just better on computers, but i love using my ipad for note taking, digital assignments, photoshop (not that i'm crazy into photoshop, i just do very basic things, but it's still great) and even when i'm using it like a second monitor (because my apple id is my school account and i can't sign into it on my personal devices i can't use sidecar, but i often use my laptop to pull up research or a slideshow, for example, and then i write in a document on my ipad)
I've made some video on it here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Tuh_jVcMu10.html on my custom Ipad and then also this one on the basics of using shortcuts to swap icons (iphone but works the same) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Nmb6cMvQ17k.html Thanks!
Universal clipboard is one thing that I use almost daily and that I ABSOLUTELY LOVE. When I go to the office and I use a windows Pc and therefore I don’t have It I feel handicapped.
Thanks for this treasure chest of tips and tricks at a fast pace, well done. Two questions….where do you get the special icons from, your screens looks awesome. And second, what is the tripod-like stand you are using eg. visible @ 5:04? Thanks and keep up the good work!
Thanks very much! The Icons are a combination of a set called 'Nox' that i found on Reddit (don't have the link) and the Mac Stories Shortcuts pack - www.macstories.net/pixel/shortcuts/ -The tripod stand is linked in the description. :) Thanks for watching!
Cheers - yeah - I’ve found with the Fuji single focus is best cos I move around so much! Ha! This one I left on continuous and it kept chasing me! Ran out of time in end - oh well. Thanks for the tip.
Thank you 4 sharing, most of the tipps I haven't heard before & I find them to be REALLY cool! Esp. 1 side 4 work/1side 4 fun, sharing without snyc & keyboard sharing too👍🏻👍🏻Do you know the minimum requirements of an ipad for using it with a bigger, external monitor? I am hearing different things: 'all ipads with usb-c', 'only with os16', 'all with M1' etc. Do you know what the minimum really is? Would appreciate to know🙋♀️Thanks up front & have a nice weekend
Throughout the video we see three different iPad stands, but you only talk about one. There’s one that’s on the screen at 1:00, do you know where I could find that one?
Awesome video as always. I don’t see a link to the stand you used for your iPad. The one that lifts it up off the desk as a monitor. Might you have a link for that?
I noticed that you're usinf Hyperdrive hub. Does the audio jack can be used for microphone as well? Use it for online meeting. Hope you can help. I've been searching the answer but no confident answer yet. Thanks !
Hy @BetterCreating! I love your videos! I have a problem with my new ipad air 5, I don't have any "Scribble" option in it. I also have a pencil (2nd gen.) Is it possible that there is no such function? :( Thank you very much for your answer!
Great video mate! But how do you make the GoodNotes paper “infinite”, or just that you need to swipe down all the time? And not swipe to the left or right
I use the iPad for photography but I hate lightroom, I want to edit on an external sad and not on the cloud. There isn't a real alternative for that. I have the Adobe subscription on the PC and don't want to pay more...
For my life, I cannot get the floating menu to show when I select more than a word of handwriting, so 8 cannot convert to text effectively. This has me thinking of just using GoodNotes.
Hi i have a old IPAD2 and when i put in restore mode on the Ipad, i cant seem to get the Box come up in Itunes on both a windows and apple computer so i can do a restore?? its pluggled in and the ipad shows the socket and little round itunes symbol so its it its mode. so whats going on? thanks for any help
I have recently found your channel and find your informative suggestions, explanations and recommendations on both hardware and software, are extremely valuable. Hopefully as time goes by you will substantially increase your number of subscribers as you definitely deserve to have far more than at the moment. I’m sure it’s only a matter of time. Your easy going presentation style makes for good viewing. Great work, thank you very much for the effort
Ah thanks Richard - really appreciate your feedback! It makes all the difference to keep making the content. Much love! Spread the word! :) Thanks, Simon
It is better now with the updated text ending and selecting functions introduced by Notion. If you build your workspaces on desktop and optimise them for mobile and iPad use like I have, it works very well I think. Of course - it’s not a native iOS app so won’t be like a pre made one.
Thanks pal! I think it's my BenQ: watch these videos: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-F5YgsCT44kY.html (review / guide to monitors) and ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vywRsJD4vxE.html (desk setup tour) :)
Haha! Not sure about sharing shortcuts - but it’s not too hard - watch my minimal iPad and minimal iPhone videos for how to do it - it’s not too hard once you know :)
My pleasure 😊 So great to hear - yeah - pleased with this one - particularly as it had the most chaotic process across UK and Miami - glad i pulled it off!
Thanks Alex - so great to read this: It's been a gradual discovery of tips and tricks that really made this iPad worth it for me. :) Thanks for watching
I'm still torn on the iPad. My phone does almost everything I need at hand, and if I need to do more, I default to the laptop. The only thing the iPad does that the other devices can't do better is drawing with the pencil, but I'm not an artist, so that makes no sense for me. It just sits on my desk collecting dust.
Once I started using the iPad when first released, I found even my laptop like a ball and chain. I can do anything I need to do on a laptop on my iPad. I like the idea of the “sidecar” function that Apple has introduced, but I wish I can use a slightly older iPad as a keyboard and trackpad for my newer one. Being able to lift up the device as a virtual keyboard and type is so much more flexible and forgiving on the body than a physical keyboard and mouse. If you can pair with a MacOS device, why can’t you pair with another IOS device? I don’t get it. :-(
Yup! I did 3 years of my college with just an iPad (sometimes library computers for more intensive projects). It had basically no issues performing any basic tasks for my earlier college assignments. Even as a graphic designer, I did like 90% of my designs on my ipad using different apps, and people are amazed when I tell them I made it on a iPad.
@@Yaks-04 affinity design is the best one! It has most of illustrator features, as well as lots of photoshop features. Also, it’s a one time purchase of like less than $15. I also use procreate, mainly for sketching or brainstorming, and regular illustrations.
Mac Stories … but developing my own minimal set at the moment! Here’s my video guide to how I did it. Cheers: My Minimal iPad Setup | Custom iOS Icon Design Tutorial 2021 (+ Shortcuts hacks!) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Tuh_jVcMu10.html
Thanks! Good to have you here: all the best with your channel - check out my video history for some one content creation processes etc - a couple on story structure and using Notion to manage ideas I loved making. :)
how you make shortcut the "App Library" in order to place a custom icon? I see this video and the other with minimal design and cant fint a walkthrough. Can you assist me pls?
I just say no need to buy the pro unless you know why you need it. The airs are super powerful now and plenty for most people. So expensive so save where you can! :)
Lord I wish my screen looked that clean… as a software engineer apple is such a conundrum. They accomplish such incredible feats yet can’t come up with a faster way to organize your Home Screen, and then eventually I just get sick of moving things around and give up :(
This is why I do not want to get an ipad. I like comfort, efficiency and ease of use. I get an ipad learn of cross features, then I want to get an iphone, then the macbook and so on. I start with spending 1000euros and at the end I am out 4000euros
Yep - definitely don’t buy an iPad then - don’t think it’s for you! Although - it’s the thing I find i most pick up as it’s comfortable and easy to use haha. :) thanks for watching.
@@BetterCreating well, that’s embarrassing. I just assumed that Google Calendar was installed, since I have Google, Gmail, etc. Installed it, found it, added the widget. Thanks.
