Apple Once Again Doesn’t Bring Accounts to the iPad
Not every family has multiple iPads and sharing one can be a one-way ticket to awkwardville.
Apple had a commercial once that showed a child using an iPad Pro in fun places like at a shop and up a tree then exclaiming, “what’s a computer?” Yeah, it was a weird flex for a company that makes and sells quite a lot of computers. The general theme was that the iPad Pro is capable of doing most of the things a computer can do and in some cases, do it better because of the touchscreen. Then kids will use and forget all about those pesky computers the olds have been using for decades.
But even with its weird ad campaign, the iPad operating system (iPadOS) still lacks support for multiple accounts which is sort of important for a computer. Even for a computer that helps you do homework while laying on the ground in the backyard. It’s a huge oversight that not only presumes that all families can afford multiple iPads (many can’t) and that only one person will use an iPad at a school or business.
