Apple's Craig Federighi on the long road to the iPad's Mac-like multitasking
Briefly

During a recent keynote, Apple’s Craig Federighi introduced a new multitasking interface in iPadOS that mirrors Mac capabilities. After years of incremental improvements, including a flawed Stage Manager, Apple has decided to provide what users have wanted: a more traditional computer-like experience. Federighi humorously acknowledged the long wait, emphasizing the evolution from hardware limitations to enhanced multitasking features like an improved file manager and better background task support. This change marks a significant step in making the iPad more functional for power users.
Wow, more windows, a pointier pointer, and a menu bar? Who would've thought? We've truly pulled off a mind-blowing release!
Apple has finally responded to requests for Mac-like multitasking with a distinctly Mac-like interface, an improved file manager, and better support for running tasks in the background.
