That’s why I often used to work on two computers at the same time – I used my iPad for doing my main work, and the iPhone to check various stuff in other apps. What’s more, some apps don’t save properly and don’t memorize where I finished work, causing my level of irritation to increase dangerously. Well, then I have to switch between apps, which minimizes the effectiveness of my work and is simply annoying. But does it always? And what if I need to check something? Due to the way iOS is designed, iPad naturally limits “distractors” and helps me work more effectively. It allows me to focus fully on just one task. One of the reasons I transitioned to working #iPadOnly was the fact that on iPad I’m “forced” to work only in one app. You don’t even have to think about it – it always works everywhere. It snaps on quickly and significantly simplifies work on the iPad. It connects with the device by means of a special port called a “Smart connector,” so you don’t have to charge it. The success of this device lies in the fact that it’s always at hand because it “hides” itself in the Smart Cover. However, after tests at the Apple Store I decided to buy it and I’m using it right now to write this article. As I mentioned in one of my previous articles, I couldn’t get used to the keyboard. When the Smart Keyboard was released along with iPad Pro, I didn’t like it. I had a couple of them myself and I often couldn’t decide which one to take. You had to charge them, pair them and carry them with you.

Yes, keyboards were available from the start… but only Bluetooth ones. How can you have a computer without a keyboard? That’s why iPad was only a toy for them, a kind of faulty computer. Still, for many people, the lack of keyboard was an insurmountable obstacle. Thanks to TapTyping, I learned to touch-type on iPad’s on-screen keyboard and I’m actually quite good at it. One of the main chapters of my “#iPadOnly” book was devoted to the keyboard and how optional it is, how rarely we use it, and how easily you can learn to use the one on the screen. Finally we have devices that run fast and make working pure joy! Is the keyboard optional? The problem with iPhone 4S’s small screen has disappeared. The hardware limitations of the iPad 3 are gone.

Thanks to these three portable devices that boast the performance of a PC, we can work really comfortably. In fact, some of my blog posts and articles for this magazine were created on the phone. Since I started using my plus-sized phone, I’ve been often leaving the iPad at home, because I know I have everything I need to work quite effectively.

To this “team” I’ll add a third tablet, namely… iPhone 6S Plus – a phone that’s so huge that you can do almost anything on it.

When Apple unveiled the 13-inch iPad Pro last year, which boasted the same performance as MacBook Air, it was clear that these devices weren’t toys anymore.Īdditionally, this year Apple introduced a smaller iPad Pro with a 10-inch display, and the world realized that now it finally had tablets for “real work.” And we have Scrivener for iOS which I’m using right now to write this very article… and which I’ll use to publish my next books about productivity. Today we have iPads which are approaching the speed of some Macs. Today, after three years, the circle is closed. We were disappointed that we couldn’t complete the whole process on iPad. Although we wrote it on our iPads, we put it together in Scrivener on the Mac. I’m a regular contributor and write my monthly productivity column there.Īlong with my friend Augusto Pinaud, I published the book “#iPadOnly” in summer 2013. Note: The following article appeared first in the 8/2016 issue of iMagazine - the leading lifestyle magazine for Apple enthusiasts in Poland. That was also when I came up with the idea to write a book about using the iPad for work. The iPad 4 I got that fall officially became my main computer for work. A few months later I was already #iPadOnly. And then, all of a sudden, I left it at home, bringing only my iPad for my two-week trip… saying I’d be trying to “work” on it from time to time. They knew me well and knew that I didn’t go anywhere without my MacBook Air. When I went on vacation to the United States in 2012, only bringing my iPad 3 with Retina display with me, my colleagues from work and friends were astonished.
