Here’s why you should use Stage Manager on your iPad instead of split-screen

Like a lot of people, I was doubtful when Apple first introduced Stage Manager to iPads. The company had delayed bringing any kind of multitasking to iPads for years, and when it did, it could never seem to get it right. It felt awkward, and options kept changing. Indeed, some people would say that iPadOS still isn’t where it needs to be. It’s hard to disagree with that. I’ve long supported the idea that iPads should function more like a Mac or Windows machine, even if that means de-emphasizing the touch interface that makes them unique.
