I want to buy the iPad 10th generation, but I’ve heard rumors about a new iPad possibly being announced at the end of March. I'm new to Apple, so I'm curious—does the price of older iPads usually decrease when a new model is released? If so, is the price drop significant? I can wait a few months before buying.
Thank you!
Greetings!
I’ve got the 2018 iPad Pro, considering the latest version, but still hearing the battery is meh. Are there any sleek portable batteries or battery banks that you can recommend. Is there a battery that is housed under and flush with the keyboard, or one that attaches or adheres to the back of the screen? Seeking an elegant setup.
I have a few iPads (older models) of which I want to bypass the activation lock. I have iMyFone for it myself now but in my opinion there are many sites that all come down to the same thing. I am willing to pay but for that I want something where I can be guaranteed that it is reliable. someone who has a name/link or whatever
Hey everyone! I recently got the iPad Air M2 2024 and I really want to use it as a sort of laptop replacement for little video edits and writing! One issue im facing here though is the keyboard situation! I would rather avoid the official Magic Keyboard from apple as they are costly and I am unsure how I would like it yet. I have been recommended this https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0DLW695D5/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A5JH7MGCI556L&psc=1 inateck one, and honestly it sounds really good! However my one sad about this one is that it is only available in black and has no storage for the apple pencil. Inateck does another case that has a pencil space but its more bulky and does not have backlight.
After weeks of looking im so lost, does anyone have any recommendations?

It is quite annoying because the elements shift position. This happens not just in Illustrator but in all apps even in Launchpad. I'm using Goojodoq GD-14. I also put silicone rubber tip but the problem persists. Is the problem with my stylus or this happens using Apple Pencil too?
Hello!
I was wondering if anyone has had any luck transcribing handwritten text on notes into digital text? I love taking handwritten notes on my iPad but I want to organize them a little more in Notion. Let me know if you've been able to automate something like this! :)
Hello everyone. Can t use youtube because it wants me to update but my device can no longer update the app considering the model xd. Youtube has been the only app I use in my ipad so I think this is goodbye.
Do u guys know any solution to this though? Would appreciate it haha. Thank you
Hi! Does anyone know why this happens? As i flip the cover of my iPad case it locks the screen, i think it is something related to the magnets attached to the device itself. I’ve tried with 3 difeferent cases and the issue persist. I even tried with another iPad and it does not happen so i guess it is about my device and not the cases. I wanted to know if somebody else experienced this problem and if it is fixable or not. Thanks!
I just the ipad air m2 today at bestbuy and theres a red dot in the middle of the screen, i tried restarting and it wont go away. Should i return it?
I currently have a m1 but it's messed up. Would it be considered a downgrade going from the 11ich iPad pro m1 to the iPad air M2? Would the pro feature bw that much of a difference?.(I'ma artist of that helpS
I have a pretty old iPad and am looking to upgrade. My use case is note taking for school. I don't do anything drawing/painting. Im getting neck pain from looking down at my iPad all the time and writing notes. I have an external monitor to mirror my iPad. I tried drawing on the iPad whilst looking at the monitor but it's too hard to know where my pencil is without looking down which defeats the purpose. I saw the hover feature on the new pencil pros which looks like it could solve my problem but im not sure.
Has anyone tried what ive described? Looking at the monitor and utilising the hover feature to know where youre about to draw so you don't need to look down at your iPad? does it feel seamless/smooth/normal? or does that too feel janky.
Hello, i hope you have a great day, some weeks ago, my Apple Pencil USB-C stopped working on my iPad 10th Gen, which, I thought it was the use of the tip that had a year of use. But, today I changed it to a new one a friend of mine brought to me, and didn’t work too. To clarify, the iPad DOES recognize the Apple Pencil when connected to a usb-c cable, or when it is charged. Any help?

Hello and thank you in advance. Im looking into buying a (budget) dongle. The apple one is 70$! I found the Anker 341 USB C Hub (7-1) and seeing if anyone has had good luck with that one working on their Ipad Air M2. I really just want the HDMI feature and everything else is extra. Any recommendations.
Hi! I have (2) ipad 6th gen (32g) and an ipad Air 2 (128g) and I'm sure which one I should gift to a friend in need. I understand that neither choice is ideal and the memory on the 6th gen is low, but if you had to pick the "best" of the bunch, which would you choose? It's not for someone that will be working on it, I imagine just streaming and messaging/facetiming. Please let me know. Thank you!
Does Stage Manager mode on the iPad disable Corner Gestures like Quick Notes and Screenshot?
Looking for a good cord. The one I’m using now just randomly stops working
I've tried re-pairing it multiple times, but it just won't show under my devices in the Find My App. Any ideas, or do i need to return the Pencil and/or the iPad Pro M4?
Hey guys I have a damaged iPad air 3 with a broken screen and swollen batteries. I'm contemplating getting it fixed, Apple services are far off me as I'm not in a covered region.
I'm looking at AliExpress to get replacement parts. I have used them extensively and they have good payback policy. Issue is for the battery, All I can see is a lot of iPad 10.5 -2017 batteries, nothing specifically for the air 3 - 2019.
The Air 3 and iPad pro 2017 are identical tablets in dimensions and battery size, would it be a similar fit for the air3 if I was to purchase.
Does anybody have experience with this and can I guided so as to avoid any future hassle. Thank you.
Can anyone recommend a good screen protector for the iPad 10th Gen that works well with the Apple Pencil?
So today I thought about using my Apple Pencil couldn’t find it until I did and it was in the dryer it does not write but it does charge would I be able to do anything to fix it or just replace it.
Hi everyone,
I've recently noticed that my iPad's volume up button doesn't feel as solid as it used to. Although it still functions properly, the change in its tactile feel is concerning. I carry my iPad with books in my bag, even though it has its own separate compartment. Could this be the reason?
Has anyone experienced a similar problem? I would appreciate any advice or recommendations on whether this is something to worry about or if I should have it checked by a professional.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Anyone know why tables are cutting off text in the Mail app on my iPad? The same email shows up fine for others. The table is not scrollable either, so I cannot see any of the text that is cut off.
Cheers.
I'm a traditional artist looking for something for creating digital art. I haven't made digital art in over a decade but I'm trying to get back into it. I know things have changed dramatically. The options and features seem a bit overwhelming, and it seems a pain in the ass to find a good compatible one for 8th gen. I'm a hand dragging lefty, and am hoping to find a pressure sensitive stylus. I've looked at the sonarpen, the Logitech crayon, and the apple pencil. All seem to have pros and cons. But I'm trying to figure out what will work best for me.
Please help Any recommendations, advice, reviews etc are welcome as I'm not sure even what to look for, please help.
I bought this iPad Air 3 in 2019 and have been using it daily till date. Its kinda struggling to multitask these days. Wanted to know if its because the battery health has deteriorated to 77% or has the processor aged after 6 years. My performance expectations from the ipad are smooth operations with pdfs, safari browsing and watching youtube.
So will replacing the battery with a fresh one reinstate the performance? Or will I need to buy a newer model?
I personally love this generation of iPad; its the slimmest iPad of all time and is light weight. Its in pristine condition. Has zero scuffs or scratches.
I just received this iPad from some family friends, and this is what happens when it turns on. Sometimes it flashes red, green, and blue repeatedly. The home and power button together make the Apple logo appear, but still nothing. Punching the bottom left (where the LCD ribbon connector is) doesn’t work either. Any ideas?
Hello,
I am a graduate student at university and my MacBook from 2020 just stopped working. Now that I have to buy a new device, I figured I would get another MacBook, but it seems that an iPad might be able to fit my needs. Here is what I use it for -
With these uses in mind, do you think an iPad with a keyboard would be able to provide what I need? I feel that an iPad might be more practical and I would be inclined to use it more once I finish my schooling.
If an iPad is the route, would the Air suffice or will I need to get the Pro to meet my needs? I was planning on getting 256 GB either way.
Thanks!
Hey everyone! I got an ipad 10th gen last may and recently my charging has been weird but last night it wouldn’t charge even tho i tried multiple chargers, would this be the charging port issue? Has this happen to anyone else? What should i do?
(i’m already going to apple tmr but figured id ask!)
