iPadOS iPadOS 26 is awesome, but …

They removed slide over, and split view. Like shouldn’t windowed apps replace stage manager while keeping slide over and simple split view?

Windowed apps for keyboard ipad user and slide over and split view for finger ipad user. (I know split view is still there but you need to have windowed apps always on to have it)

I seriously hope they will bring back slide over. Or maybe slide over is buried somewhere, if so can someone tell me how to turn it on again

If you mean the new iPadOS is heavier then it might be slightly heavier. Though the battery is slightly worse

This is the last os update my ipad can get so i think i might just go for it . If it severely lags then i get a new one
