One day, Stage Manager could be the future of multitasking on the iPad. But today is not that day.
Stage Manager is, without a doubt, one of the most fascinating pieces of software I’ve seen from Apple in years. Released as the hallmark feature for iPadOS 16, Stage Manager reimagines the multitasking experience for the iPad — allowing you to run multiple windows simultaneously, resize them to your heart’s content, and turn the iPad into more of a desktop-like computing experience than ever before.
From here, Stage Manager works similarly to a desktop operating system like Windows or macOS. You can resize app windows, reposition them on your workspace, and run multiple apps side by side. Windows can also overlap each other, allowing you to really clutter up your screen if you want to. Once you have an app open in a windowed view, tapping on apps in the shortcut menu on the left also behaves arbitrarily. Most apps will slide into view while still showing those app shortcuts on the left. Other times, an app may open in a windowed view but hide those shortcuts, requiring you to swipe from the left side of the screen to see them again. I’ve also had instances where tapping an app from the multitasking/recent apps menu erroneously shows a blank screen.
One of the most frustrating aspects of Stage Manager is how it handles opening apps. If you open an app you haven’t used with Stage Manager yet, it opens in its own workspace with no other apps alongside it. From here, it’s easy to drag other apps onto your workspace and run multiple windows — simple enough, right?
