iPad Pro

Loving tech. AV Geek from Dubai (UTC+4). My posts are my personal views. They do not represent the views of my company.

@cano Yep, 12.9" one. Yeah I also heard that smaller iPad Pro is coming out in some time in April/May. BTW, does Apple Pencil work with your iPad? Are you using any external Keyboards? I am getting good use of Apple Pencil to jot notes. I also use Apple Keyboard cover

@sumudu good morning! 😊

@sumudu

@33MHz Hello, Hope you're having a great weekend! Me, work week starts today

@33MHz

@sumudu on Sunday, eh?

@sumudu

@33MHz Yep, this part of the world. Sunday through to Thursday. Weekend is Friday and Saturday

@cano

@sumudu Good morning! 😊 So, off to work already? 😖

@sumudu

@cano Yep, back home already. How is your Sunday so far?

@cano

@sumudu Hi! I just woke up a little while ago and am enjoying some freshly brewed coffee with my iPad. Looks like it might be a lazy Sunday. Hope the rest of your work week goes smoothly. :)

@33MHz

@cano There's an app for that?!
/@sumudu

@cano

@33MHz lol! I guess I should have said "along with my iPad" 🙊😂 @sumudu

@sumudu

@cano Thanks. Lazy Sundays (Fridays for me though) always good. It's raining here on this Sunday afternoon and that's making my Sunday evening also lazy 🌧

@cano

@sumudu Yeah, here it's a bit cloudy so I know what you mean. ☁️By the way, what time is there now?

@sumudu

@cano It's 1801hrs (6.01pm) You must be 8-9 hours behind right? NYC?

@cano

@sumudu Oh, so good evening! Yeah, it's 9:03 AM here. I have a little time zone app I used to use...maybe I should dig it up again.

@sumudu

@cano Good Morning then! I was in NYC for a brief visit a couple of weeks back

@cano

@sumudu Yes, I do remember you sometimes fly into NYC and was it Boston also?

@sumudu

@cano This time around it was to JFK and EWR

@cano

@sumudu Ah, I knew it was at least one other airport. Btw, do you still have the larger iPad Pro or did you swap out to the smaller one?

@sumudu

@cano I still use iPad Pro and have been very much like in it

@cano

@sumudu The 12.9" one right? I have the 9.7" one and really love it too. I hope the new rumored 10.5" one doesn't tempt us though. 😏

@cano

@sumudu Yes, I use the Apple Pencil and Smart Keyboard Cover. The Apple Pencil is great for notes and annotation, but I also sometimes use it just to navigate like a normal stylus...Steve Jobs must be rolling in his grave...haha.

@sumudu

@cano Any particular apps do you use for taking Notes? Am using probably almost all that are in town like GoodNotes , NotePad, Notability, Noteshelf, Babmboo.... Tell me I'm a sucker for Note taking apps 😜

@jws

@cano @sumudu I had just talked work into picking up an iPad Pro for me, when I hear new models are due to be announced in March. Now planning to cool my heels till I head back in April after parental leave. 😁

@jws

@rafaelcosta Rendering bug: Parent post shows up fine in reply view with joy emoji after monkey, but in timeline, it has two half-A characters rather than the joy emoji.

@sumudu

@jws @cano That sounds like a good decision

@jws

@rafaelcosta 1.0. I'm not enrolled in the beta. :)

@cano

@sumudu Wow, you do like notes apps...lol! I like Notability and have used GoodNotes too...and I use it in Apple Notes, but my current favorite is Nebo which is free.

MyScript Nebo – Note Taking for Apple Pencil by MyScript

@sumudu

@cano Yep, I got that too - Nebo. Like the way it coverts handwriting to text

@cano

@jws Ah, yes, best to hold out as the new rumored iPad Pro sounds like it might be pretty slick. @sumudu

@cano

@sumudu Have you used the MyScript keyboard they make also? Its pretty good especially when you just want a break from typing. I'm using it now to "type" this. I just wish some of
icon buttons were lighter because its hard to them see in dark mode.

@sumudu

@cano No, I haven't. Is it a onscreen keyboard? I might as well check that thing out right away

@cano

@sumudu This is the MyScript Stylus in action...it can recognize print or cursive! It can take a little getting used to but it's good for typing breaks or as an alternative.

@sumudu

@cano got that. But think I will have to get use to it. very cool though

@cano

@sumudu Yes, there are some shortcuts like strikethrough, delete etc that you can learn about by hitting the little "i". Here is a good...and kind of funny...video on it:
