It’s the phrase that’s like catnip to many iPad users: iPadOS 19 will reportedly make Apple’s tablet run “more like macOS” including with upgraded multitasking. We’ve heard it before, and technically Apple has accomplished it before—though with mixed results. New products in the pipeline, however, mean that iPadOS 19’s success has higher stakes than previous attempts. iPadOS multitasking: Here we go again When the iPad first launched, it was a simple, approachable “third category of device.”

According to Mark Gurman in the Power On newsletter, Apple’s iPadOS 19 will “focus on productivity, multitasking and app window management — with an eye on the device operating more like a Mac.” It won’t quite be macOS for iPad, but Gurman notes that “the changes will likely go far enough” to please those users who are looking to get more out of the tablet’s software.
