How's your iPad life iPad crew?! ... OK - so they're not secret - but many don’t know they exist! 📣 Download my new Icons & iOS16 Design Pack HERE: www.bettercreating.com/iosdesignpack (use launch code EARLYBIRD20 for a 20% off offer!) 😚
Interesting. I bought an ipad pro. These features were ripped from android apps from 10 years ago. Ipad has them more seemlessly designed into the system. But none of them were created at apple. I am enjoying the ipad, now that it has type c usb. Its the first apple product I have bought. Just catching up on mechanics.
One thing I love about Scribble is being able to scribble over something I wrote to erase it. I turned off the double-tap to switch tools feature because there were too many times I would adjust my grip on the pencil, continue writing only to discover I was now erasing things. I use Good Notes for so many things and I simply got used to tapping the eraser icon at the top, then tap the pen icon to continue. Now I can just scribble over something I want to change; speed and efficiency!
If you hold space bar to move through you’re texts you (on iPad) can also tap shift or delete while holding the space bar and slide, now you can delete large amounts of texts quick:)
Question: When you make a typing mistake, the ipad/iphone will mark it as red. But at the same time, when you tap the marked word, it will select the whole word. , in an attempt to “correct” it. Sometimes ios doesn’t find the right ‘corrected’ word though. The word is still “selected” as a whole. How do I go to a section of the marked word, without having to delete the whole word? Because tapping it will usually open the text selection tool
Yes! I was away with work in Australia so I was listening to the scripted stuff I wanted to say in my ear so I could get it recorded fast in a hotel! Haha. :)
Do you have tutorials for tips you share that go through the tips more thoroughly & at a slower pace? I love your information, you move so quickly between tips.
Hi Luke - no, it’s not a con! As per my comments in the videos, and on the download page: there is a guide video linked to show how the customisation hack on iOS works, and a disclaimer on the website saying that icons design on iOS is not plug and play and involve you building quick shortcuts for adding the icons. The icons being sold are all of the icon designs, and widget templates. I’m pretty happy this is communicated across the sales pages and the videos based on the number of sales and feedback. But if you need any further directions you can find the guide video to customising linked on my website where you downloaded. :) thanks for downloading, and enjoy the icon designs. 👍
To be honest i just stumbled upon your channel and got addicted with your content’s simplicity. Subbed immediately. Keep shining Simon. Regards from India 🇮🇳
Hi Bradley - thanks for downloading - looking at your various other comments I think you’ve found the guide video now, and found the iOS. Customisation options a bit stressful. Just email if you decide to give up on it! Thanks. S
I have a 5th Gen iPad Pro and stage manager with resizing each window and moving them about is working (iPadOS17.02). Also you don’t hold the Globe Key, you hold the Cmd Key.
Hi there - watch the guide video I reference - here it is. ua-cam.com/video/mv0e658hrP8/v-deo.html Please note - customising iOS takes a little work, but I think it’s worth it! Enjoy :)
Yes - download the zip files open the zip, follow the guide video to install icons using shortcuts ua-cam.com/video/mv0e658hrP8/v-deo.html … or just search UA-cam for other examples of how people customise their iPad / iPhone in ios16 thanks! :)
Hey Simon! Very exciting and informative video, at least for those who are already familiar with icons and widgets etc. Personally, I need the "iPad for iDiots" version, wherever it may be. I have no idea where the "Globe" icon is, (or is that a "widget?"). I have a personal issue tat you may be able to help with: I am a musician and just bought an iPad with the intent of switching from the LyricPad music program to the SongbookPro program, which the rest of my band mates use. I already have the lyrics typed in normal text form and believe I could change those files to PDF files if necessary. My problem is to find a way to move both text and audio files to the locations needed to utilize them in the iPad SongbookPro program. The needed files are currently in my Mac computer. I guess I could move or import them one at a time, but it will certainly be time consuming. Any ideas? I'd really appreciate it.
Ah thanks! Yes - Easy! (well - it's slightly long winded but I've made a full tutorial!) ua-cam.com/video/mv0e658hrP8/v-deo.html you can just download my icon and covers pack via the link in this description and use the guide - enjoy! Simon :)
@@BetterCreating Ok.. here is a list of apps I plan to use.. Fender Play, its a guitar lessons app with human instructors created by Fender.. Gibson Guitar lessons app, Fender Tone, a app that allows you to change, edit and create effects and preset on my Fender GTX guitar amp.. Marshall Gateway, does the same thing as the Fender tone but for Marshall Code 25 and 50 watt amps.. The Spark app, an app for the Positive Grid Spark modeling amp.. Katana Librarian and the Katana Air app, apps for the Boss Katana MKII guitar amps.. Mantis from the Laser Academy, an app used to dry fire indoor target practicing, this app utilizes the camera to stare and targets and keep score, and finally, Final Cut Pro... I have it on my mac mini but apparently I have to get another copy for the tablet.. so based on all of this, which would you go with, the 12.9 or the 11?
I'm used Spotlight calc for a while - it's not convenient. So i ended up with PCalc Light - it's free, have no ads, and looks like very similar to iPhone calculator. Thank god they added weather app for iPad.
Hi greetings from Mexico, I was scrolling on you tube and suddenly your video appeared and it caught my eye (the title), so thanks for those amazing tips
Hey, gr8 tips; love my iPad .. gotta update soon. Ditching desktop in favour of phone & tablet. Always wondered how screenshot on new iPads without Home button. Scan tip cool too.
The 3 finger smaller keyboard feature is so awesome and I seriously didn’t know that it existed until I watched this video lol! Thank you very much! 👍🏾😀
I am a new subscriber and have really enjoyed your secret tips for the iPad. I have a question that is not related to the video. I got a glimpse of your calendar when you were talking about the Stage Manager, which is something I need to check out for working with my GoodNotes planned. I Saw that you have color blocks for your events. We had that capability several years ago but I can’t do it now except for the all day event. I have both a GEN seven engine 10 iPad both running 16.3.1 and a MacBook Pro, running Monterey (I teach Digital Scrapbook in and cannot upgrade to Ventura because it will not run on Ventura). My question is…. how do you get the color blocking! Are you running I-Cal or an app that does that, or something else entirely. I looks like I-Cal. I would appreciate any help you can give. I am in the US, not EU, if that makes any difference. Thanks!
Ah OK - Yes - the calendar app is actually Google calendar - think that offers the colour blocks - but you could do the same in iCal by creating multiple calendars. Thanks for watching :)
Nice video. I have subscribed. Thanks for this. Picked up a few things that I knew but seldom used. This is a great reminder to start using these tools
Good to see you in New Zealand Simon. I learned plenty in this video. I’m going to be using the corner shortcuts much more now. I’ll check out your custom icons too. Good stuff. See you again 👋
I really really really dislike the new “swipe to screenshot.” It makes it super difficult to “swipe to close” an app especially when its in a stand. If anyone has a tip on how to either change the “swipe to close” an app or to remove the “swipe to screenshot,” I would be ever so grateful!

I'm so glad! :)
I really appreciate how concise your video is! So refreshing to see a tech video that gets to the point
Thanks! I’ve had as many comments saying it’s too fast I think! But I like to keep it tight where I can. Haha. Welcome!
Spotlight doesn't appear for me
I had the same issue. Try from Home Screen swipe down twice
We just got our child an iPad for graduation from art school- I hope they find these helpful!
If you hold space bar to move through you’re texts you (on iPad) can also tap shift or delete while holding the space bar and slide, now you can delete large amounts of texts quick:)
Hold Spacebar on the keyboard to move the cursor to any part of the text you have written
Great one! Cheers
doesnt work in all apps… I hate the apple Keyboard
I’ve been searching for this for a long time, thank you so much！
Most of the time the cursor just go back to it’s original position.
Thanks god
I prefer to keep default icons as it is in the iPad. After all Apple team spend lot of time designing those icons 😊
Please, would you explane how tonget the numbers raw fixed to the keyboard! I cant find the way to change my onscreen keyboard to 5 raws

How to write on transparent background so that the written words can be placed on other pictures ?
Is there any way to write on the screen of ipad like we do with epic pen in windows?
Do you mean - actually write on the glass?
@@BetterCreating not on the physical glass sir. Please tell me if there is any app for ipad like "Epic Pen" for Windows for screen annotation.
so do you use your ipad for everyday use? I'm wanting the ipda pro but I think I need the mac book?? So hard to know what will do the job and last.

I have a new IPad and tried the system wide gestures several times and nothing happened, do I have to prepare by going to settings ect
How do I get rid of that annoying box at the top that pops up telling me everything that my pencil is hovering over??? Please help!
Do you use any keyboard? I have the magic but I'm constantly leaving at home because is heavy and I prefer use the iPad with fingers
I tend to use my Nuphy air60 with iPad - but mostly at home :)
What is the Globe key as in Globe-C? I am in the US. Some one said it command-C but iPads don’t have a cmd key
Sorry! Old school! Should have said function key - can look like a globe 🌐 shape on some iPad keyboards
Thank you very much. Cheers from St. Louis Missouri and Happy Christmas to you.
Same to you!
What keyboard did u use? Is it ios keyboard? How to add number row
I use spotlight on a daily basis to keep my Home Screen clutter free. But I didn’t realize it did all that. So cool!
For Stage Manager, it’s only a 2018 iPad Pro/M1 iPad Air or newer for it to work on the iPad display by the way!
any reason you have an Earpod in?
Yes! I was away with work in Australia so I was listening to the scripted stuff I wanted to say in my ear so I could get it recorded fast in a hotel! Haha. :)
Wonderful video! So many tricks I didn’t know about. Thank you for posting this. Instant like, and subscribe!
Awesome, thank you!
Will these work on iPad 16.6 ?
Does your ipad have a screen protector? I want to enjoy the specs of my ipad at the same time I don’t want to have it scratched.
It doesn’t but paperlike looks fab.
Do you have tutorials for tips you share that go through the tips more thoroughly & at a slower pace? I love your information, you move so quickly between tips.
Yeah / this is more of an overview - might do some actual tutorials in the future. Thanks for the feedback!
List of icons that control video speed.
Do you prefer not having an iPad case that has a keyboard attached? TY!
I used to - but now I tend to use it mostly for image and visual editing so use the pencil mostly.
Please show me what the globe key looks like

Yep - this was an update on iPadOS 17 - you can now resize more flexibly and also add windows holding command :)
Are these tips and tricks available for all iPads? Or just Pro version?
Great tips indeed, thanks
Thanks!
