When iPadOS and MacOS Catalina combine, Sidecar happens. I LOVE Sidecar and I've been using it enough lately that I've gathered some tips and tricks and best practices to share. From how to use Sidecar (and what you can use it for) to getting the most out of your 2nd (or 3rd) screen, this video has something for every iPad and Mac owner!

My main goal is this (while I'm travelling and feel the need to produce something at night). The 10" iPad is enough for using as 2nd display w/ sidecar for my Macbook (and my developer work)? I'm planning to buy a new Macbook M1 Pro but I can't decide between 14" or 16". Will the 16" be enough to handle occasional trips so I can let my iPad at home? (PS: I already have a 2nd massive screen at home so my questions are only for 1-2 week(s) trips..

After a 30-year career teaching music in-person, I successfully switched to teaching ONLINE, 2+ years ago. I'm currently using an M1 Mac Mini with multiple video sources (5 cameras, a macbook, iPad 9G, video switchers, etc) ... What's been frustrating, is that it's not easy to SEE my students when I look into my front-facing camera ... So I JUST bought a teleprompter. After watching your video, I'm now SUPER EXCITED to use Sidecar! ... Using my M1 Mac Mini, and another iPad (mounted on the teleprompter) connected via Sidecar, I'll now be able to see my students, WHILE I'm looking into the camera!

Go into sys prefs when connected via sidecar, then under displays you can tell Catalina that the sidecar iPad is physically on the left by changing the arrangement of the two screens (laptop and iPad acting as extended desktop). The OS cannot tell what physical side of your laptop is, but once you do put it on left you can drag windows or apps right to your iPad. Think of it as a dual monitor, extended desktop setup.

You could use XY pads and all that, it would basically enable the iPad to be a fully functioning touchpad midi controller.
