„Benjamin Button moves from an iPad Pro running iOS 11 to a 13″ MacBook Pro“

Auch wenn das Thema überholt erscheint: Ich habe im Jahr 2017 immer noch Spaß an einer gepflegten ‚Mac vs. iPad‘-Diskussion – insbesondere wenn man dabei unterschiedliche (Software‑)Bedürfnisse und Arbeitsweisen erfährt.

Charles Arthur adaptiert die Artikel-Idee von Fraser Speirs, der vor eineinhalb Jahren fragte: „Can the MacBook Pro Replace Your iPad?“.

Software-wise, the change is not that much of a shock at first. There’s the Dock that I’m used to from iOS 11; you can even (I found a Setting) put it on different sides of the screen. Unlike iOS 11, it’s always there, unless you find the other Setting which makes it automatically disappear like it should. I had some trouble at first when I kept pulling apps out of the Dock to make them multitask and they just vanished. Finally I realised that it’s like iOS 11 where you just press on the app to launch it.
