iPadOS 19 Set for Major Overhaul, Bringing Enhanced Productivity and Mac-Like Features

According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, Apple is set to make a significant overhaul to iPadOS 19, which will aim to make the operating system more like macOS in terms of productivity, multitasking, and app window management. This comes as part of broader ecosystem changes from Apple, including a major iPhone redesign with iOS 19 and a first Mac design refresh in over five years. The update has been long awaited by iPad power users who have complained about the device’s software capabilities lagging behind its hardware for several years.
