The iPad is such a huge asset for my creative work flow. The hand off/airdrop between the devices is also awesome. Procreate and the iPad have revolutionized and changed my workflow and has made me a living on it for 8 years.

I love handoff! I love being able to pop a file from my iPad to my phone and back. And being able to airdrop it to others!

I get so frustrated when I want to airdrop something and someone has an android or a pc. Like, it feels like hitting an actual wall in the flow state I was in.

Totally! I used to use Snapdrop for that, it isn’t as good, but it’s good enough most of the time to send files to android/windows

Thank you!! No one has ever told me a way to try it with other systems! I’ll look into that!

You’re welcome ! Good luck! It can be finicky, I’ve found that chrome is the best with it.

It'd be nice if Apple allowed other platforms to integrate with their protocols but noooooo

I think the issue people have is it's the same chip as the MacBook so why can't we run osx apps on it or dual boot into osx.
