iPadOS 26 is here, and Apple is making the iPad feel more Mac-like than ever. From windowed apps and the iconic traffic light buttons to a dynamic menu bar, Exposé, advanced file management, and even the Preview app — this update pushes the iPad closer to being a true laptop replacement.
In this video, I walk you through all the new Mac-inspired features in iPadOS 26, including:
• Windowed multitasking with resizing and tiling
• Mac-style red, yellow, and green stoplight controls
• Exposé for a smarter app switcher
• A dynamic menu bar with app-specific commands
• A supercharged Files app with default app settings
• Folders in the Dock and customization options
• The Preview app with Apple Pencil support
• Real background tasks like video exports in Final Cut Pro
The line between iPad and Mac has never been thinner. Is this the year the iPad finally replaces your laptop? Let me know in the comments!
