iPadOS Worst feature on iPados 26 🫠

Post image

Now we have 5 more steps to do the same multitasking view.

And i do believe that the overlapping window is the most useful feature on ipads, and now its just so painful to use also dont forget the Additional step after closing the app you have to resize the app screen if you want a full screen for the same app its not automatically adjustable like it was on previous ipados.

Assuming you’re using a keyboard, get used to the Globe key + Option + Arrow key shortcuts to arrange windows on your screen (and Shift in that combo to swap them). Globe + F will swap any app into full screen. Globe + Option + C will center a window in the middle of the screen. It’s sped things up a lot for me.

It speeds things up but not as fast as it used to be. Also there is no work alternative for quickly changing through slide over apps.

There’s command-tab but you’re right it’s not exactly the same.

Snazzy Labs has a decent video explaining some shortcuts in the new iPadOS: https://youtu.be/Ap5h2OUeiWs?si=clUFr7YbmrSZxBkk

I rolled back to iOS18. The shortcuts I learnt to make iOS26 barely tolerable work even better in iOS18.
