iPadOS should be a slightly altered macOS instead of a slightly altered iOS

Lol, I can't stop laughing at the thumbnail. 😂😂😂

IMAGINE VIRTUAL BOX ON IPAD THAT WOULD BE INSANE! Playing windows XP games on iPad 😂

I’m afraid even the EU can’t do this

IMO , iPadOS isn’t that broken , it’s just missing so many TINY things from macOS that add up.

Android allows alt stores and side-loading. The option is burried in the settings app. Most normal people stick exclusively to Google Play. I really don't see it being a problem, and if people do download malware, then that's on them, not something that Apple should be policing.

Bro that meme as the thumbnail is top tier!!! lol

Honestly that would be a great direction for it. A simple dual boot option makes everyone happy and with minimal effort.

Imagine an Apple customer suggesting that to be able to download apps from wherever you want on the device you spent a lot on, you have to buy an even more expensive keyboard and mouse because a version of Dex just ain't viable enough for Apple

Well it's iPadOS that needs this law, not the iPad in general. If they dual boot macOS, they still need to have the iOS DMA features on iPadOS.

Yup, I’m here for the thumbnail 😂

The best way to do it would be to merge iPadOS and MacOS together to make some sort of hybrid of the good bits of both and use that on both the Mac and iPad. They love to push the whole “iPad is a computer” narrative so it makes sense to put it on par with the Mac. However I do think not releasing any iPads in 2023 was very much intentional. I bet they will refresh the entire lineup next week ahead of what I expect will be a major refresh for iPad OS.

Haven’t even used my iPad since I graduated there’s literally no use for me

Side loading would actually make me sell my MacBook and stick to only my iPad. Also if microsoft released the full desktop version of office in the iPad

Would they have to do this for older iPads as well based on the law or are they forced to do it only on the new devices. I’d really like that in my M1 but don’t feel like upgrading at all

Connecting a mouse and keyboard shouldn't even be prerequisites for running MacOS on iPads. The touchscreen meets the requirements for a pointing device - even if they didn't want to allow direct point and click for some reason, it could at least function as a track pad. If you're doing something in MacOS that doesn't actually require a keyboard, needing one attached to boot into it is kind of ridiculous. But also MacOS has an onscreen keyboard that could be used in a pinch if someone needed one but couldn't be bothered to attach a physical keyboard.

The device with the most potential and the device that is held back the most:

When my iPad Pro dies the only reason I won’t swap it for a Samsung Ultra pad will be if Apple allow dual booting into Mac, not a chance I’ll bother with another iPad otherwise.

It’ll be funny if that’s what this new event is so about. Finally open up the iPad!

An interesting theory, but it breaks down because macOS will never be on the iPad mini. And the European government will definitely be asked for this, why not all iPads can download third-party software

1:45 How would sideloading break anything? Sideloading would be extra option to use, not mandatory.

Dual boot is the answer with magic keypad as you say. Some sort of remote access to your iMac might work partially as well? Eventually we need bigger iPad screens though. Interesting video.

funny thing is it’s just up to windows to make an ARM based tablet and it’s over

I think allowing Parallels to run on iPadOS then other OSs within that would meet these needs and would be super awesome to use!

Yes Come to Europe ! It’s the final Countdown ! For iPadOS. Dual Boot Options !

I just want some more powerful features in my M1 iPad Pro, a proper file system would be nice for one.

So true 😅😮😂

To really unlock the full potential of the iPad, we need Apple to come with an UnifiedOS, meaning running a new full MacOS that would have 2 different UI. You would have an “iPad UI mode” that would look just like iPadOS right now, easy to use with your fingers, but as soon as you would grab a precise pointer such a new Pencil, or Mouse or Trackpad, then the UI could adjust itself to look like MacOS, with of course ability to run any MacOS application, with Finder, Terminal and DevKit, so you would turn your iPad Pro into a full blown MacBook with touchscreen… It wouldn’t run two OS, but just one OS since a M2 or higher hardware could already run smoothly MacOS anyway, so potentially an iPad Pro can run MacOS… and most of the OS apps are already looking similar between iPadOS and MacOS. So we simply just need an ability to switch UI according to the pointer we’re using… if you don’t have any pointer and use your fingers, then iPadOS UI mode would be perfect… and if you have a precise pointer, then you don’t have to restrict yourself with iPadOS UI, you can use MacOS UI… by doing so, Apple can argue they’re running MacOS so the iPad Pro wouldn’t be any different from MacBook and the EU laws would become irrelevant…

Thats honestly the perfect option. Its the path of least resistance and everyone would win! Id definitely move to the EU just for that 😂

Gonna wait until May 7th before I list my iPad Air 2022 for sale online and order a secondhand Galaxy Tab. My hopes aren't high but it's fun to pretend they're actually gonna make the OS better. Don't get me wrong, I think the iPad is great at what it does. I also think the models above $400 kinda don't have any reason at all to exist. The kinds of things I actually do with my iPad? A sub-$200 Galaxy tablet has sufficient processing power to do them. And buying a more equivalent device to the iPad I did buy, features can give me an actual reason to use the higher specs that come with a flagship - multitasking UI that's not frustrating or limited and doesn't discourage me to use it, sideloading lets me take advantage of whatever the heck I want to run on it (thinking about emulators mainly, though I guess Apple is getting those now?), basically it's just a lot closer to a desktop device while still giving me the opportunity to pop the keyboard off and consoom content on a really great, really mobile screen.

I really hope they do this but I highly doubt they would. Also if they did wouldn’t only the eu see this change? I’d personally like to see this in the US but if they do what they did with iOS side loading it could be not available in America.

I lke how this vid was so much more positve then the ev video

I like your dual boot suggestion and being able to switch between iPad OS and Mac OS would work for me (plus I am sure Apple have already run Mac OS on M series iPads in the lab), but I am not more hopeful for the iPad and in particular the iPad Pro because of latest the EU announcement. For a pro user, iPad OS is fundamentally flawed. First you have the awful web kit which cripples the functionality of third-party web browsers, such as Edge, Chrome, Firefox, Opera etc, so that they all end up feeling like a clone of Safari, and these days Safari frustrates me more times than it delights me. You can't run VMs - technically you could but Apple doesn't allow it. I would like to run a full-blown IDE, but that's also not possible, e.g. test your code on device emulators. You can't format, repair or image external SSD / memory cards. Plus, most apps in the iPad OS app store feel like clones of candy crush, clash of clans, hidden object mystery crap, etc. Increasingly iPad OS gets in the way of what I want to do with a tablet computer. I used to be able sideload emulators such as a Dolphin and UTM for light weight OS emulation, and used a workaround involving jitterbug, so I could run them standalone on my iPad Pro without needing to debug tether it to second Apple device on my local network, but iPad OS 17 put a stop to all that! Fundamentally, Apple doesn't really want the iPad to be able to replace a laptop, because they want you to buy both an iPad and a MacBook. Apple will continue to tinker around at the edge to appease to the politicians, playing a cat & mouse game, as each time non tech savvy politicians realise, they've been outsmarted once again and need to further tighten the rules. While this is all happening, the iPad continues to fall short of pro customers expectation, as it evolves into an even more confusing and frustrating device to use, and iPad Pro sales will continue decline. I can't see anything really changing at Apple until old timers such as Tim Cook and Craig Federighi have retired or moved on.

That’s funny I just commented that we need a Mac OS emulator for iPad now. I definitely see it coming eventually. Hopefully this revives the jailbreak community if apple finds ways to stop Mac OS on iPad.

I expect iOS 18.0 and iPadOS 18.0 to support a lot of third-party functionality, and it will be in a far more integrated manner than in iOS 17.4 and (soon) iOS 17.5.

I so hope this does happen. The iPad for me is the perfect device, except for its software limitations

Will side loading ever come to Apple products in America

I don’t have inherent issues with iPad OS. I think if you’re buying anything up to an iPad Air, iPad OS is capable enough and most people will be buying it desiring a mobile first experience and it does that stupidly well. However…. iPad OS on the expensive Pro line which is due to go up in price and prices above a MacBook Air. It doesn’t cut the cheese.

so the EU all wear sunglasses?

iPad Pro should be able to run MacOS applications

Eu must look towards watch os also so we don't need to pay subscription for apple music

The EU gonna save us

Step 1: make macOs work with touch interface. Step 2: seel macbooks with touchscreens. Step 3: add dual boot on ipad Pro's

That thumbnail game tho!

Got the wrong IPad Pro 🤦🏾‍♂️

Calculator 😂😂😂

iPad should get Desktop Class Experience and Applications. If not, there is no really a reason to being anymore. Before 10 years it was a cool device but now it is not. If you really want an iPAD you have to get one of the Pros but nowadays just for Touch Screen and a crippled OS would i not pay a Macbook price. Instead, i would buy a refurbished or old Generation M Processor Macbook.

What ithe iPad needs is AI capability and a smarter Siri. What is all the hype about the M4 anyway? Is it a hybrid chip that is less likely to throttle, or is Apple going to put tiny little fans in the new iPads?

I would like iPad to be able to IOS updates via hotspot first ahahah

So you basically want apple's version of the Microsoft surface?

I don’t really care about sideling at all I really want the iPad to be able to do that. The Apple computers can do is I just wanna be able to run steam on the iPad so I can play my steam games on my iPad I know the iPad is not as powerful as a computer I get that, but those games could still run on an iPad if they would allow it

If your mobing to europe come to ireland 😅🤣

yeah man, keep on dreaming...

How does that relate with the Pope?

Although iOS and iPad OS are broken without repair, the European union are truly making waves into fixing Apple even though they are adamant on not fixing themselves

Honestly I regret buying my iPad Pro. It fucking sucks. It does nothing but watch youtube and movies. Biggest waste of money. Please allow dual boot into MacOS for fucks sake

Apple should just allow sideloading, with no strings attached, on iOS and iPad OS, and stop behaving like a dishonest child (who also bullies all their classmates). Until they do that, they will keep being slapped around by the EU and the US and other governments.

MacOS emulator on the iPad? Sounds like an HackPadintosh

The thumbnail is sacrilegious to Christians. The bread which represents the body of Christ is replaced with an iPad.

What would actually happen if Apple can not sell iPads in the EU?… don’t tell me European people won’t get iPads, really?, wouldn’t they buy them from America or Japan or something?… maybe too expensive and people would get Samsung tablets.

EUcharist.

Yes, please macOS on the iPad please

hey tailosive tech so in six months it’s november 1st,2024

I hate the EU

95% of us are here cause of that thumbnail

iOS (iPadOS) is macOS from the beginning. It just a macOS version adapted to touch screen. So no need to download macOS, but a desktop skin for iPadOS that is activated with mouse and keyboard for example, as You said.

I like how you always oversimplify and make the law seem way easier than it is, which also makes me question whether you spent time researching the topics before making the video, the UE requests Apple to open the iPad App Store so that developers can add third-party apps store to iPad OS, you suggesting that Apple could just add Mac OS to ipad as a dual boot doesn't comply to the main request which is installing other app from other app store to ipad os, them adding mac os is not gonna fix that, not sure where you got that logic from

the thumbnail and the skit 😆

Just want my new iPhone color and see if we get a red 15 pro so I can regret my 15 pro titanium.

apple should just make a touch screen mac to appease you dorks

Though it may be a viable option, I just don't think it's the right move having macOS on iPad. Especially business-wise. But let's see what happens🤷‍♂🤷‍♂

This definitely speaks “Give a mouse a cookie. “ it’s not like Apple is forcing people to buy their products

There's the problem! The only problem with Apple Products is that they have Apple's Operating System. And you really can't operate Window's programs without an emulator program. Which is not that good to begin with. Would love to know if one were to remove all apple software off of their Mac Drive and replace it with windows, would it actually work just as well if not better?

Why is the EU making all these rulings for a company that isn't even a part of Europe? I mean sure they sell their products their, but Apple is an American company, not a European one, so why should what the EU says mean anything to Apple?

EU have got lot of issues of it's own to fix, and I mean huge issues that are plaguing Europe, before starting to tell cooperation's how to design their products, what color to use, what materials and what sizes. You probably are not aware but EU is one of the most bureaucratic system that exists worldwide.

Government regulations are almost never the answer. I’d rather have a boring iPad.

Second

Switching back and forth between two different OS on the same device is a a terrible idea and completely unnecessary, Apple just has to stop preventing iPadOS from functioning properly. Simple.

Pin pls

The skits of this channel are absolutely amazing. 😂

OK, so I download a malicious app and it steals all of my banking information. I'm completely wiped out. Who do I blame Apple or the EU?

MacOS on the iPad, that's the dream

To be able to run MacOS on an iPad, it needs to drop the touch capability. MacOS would have to be rewritten entirely to keep being MacOS and have touch input at the same time.

Drew you can’t seriously think it’s a good idea for the E.U to keep stepping into Apple’s garden and essentially ripping down the walls that keep the ecosystem the way it is

There’s an old expression that says be careful what you wish for you just might get it. For the EU to force their ideology of how they think something should be done on a company for a product that they didn’t create is crazy. There is plenty of choice in the market, you don’t have to use Apple. If people want all of this, maybe they should create their own product.

Apple needs to tell the EU to f#%k off.

I hate when people want the iPad to be a Mac!!! That’s quite ridiculous just buy a Mac. Leave the iPad alone

That’s no way to depict the Holy Father. Christe Eleison.

macOS on iPad is the worst idea that I ever heard

Many people may find the thumbnail cool. But it's nothing else rather than an offense for all Catholics. And this is NOT cool.

I would be nice to see the iPads get more cable but I have always and will always be against the EU Forcing apple to do things and breaking apple and the reasons we chose them over the competitors in wich BILLIONS EXISIT IDIOT EU, I just wish they would notice the truth and leave them alone rather than wrecking everything that makes them different and taking away all options that make us chose them over the competitor's! I wish the EU would focus on actual problems in there country rather than attacking apple

As everyone knows, there is no thing EU can’t do, except fixing their own economy😂

So true 😅😮😂
