Apple debuted iPadOS 18 at this year\u2019s Worldwide Developer Conference.<\/a> Personally, I found it to be a major letdown as there were no new multitasking or file management updates or features.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This means that my new iPad Pro, powered by the amazing and powerful M4 chip is still hobbled by its operating system. That\u2019s why, despite its near-perfect form factor, it won\u2019t work as a laptop replacement for most folks. However, iPad Pros still have their place even in a serious Mac user\u2019s workflow as they serve as great companion accessories for a Mac.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, I use my tablet as a third display with my MacBook Pro thanks to Apple\u2019s Sidecar feature. (Three displays, you ask? Yep. The MacBook Pro display, the iPad, and an Apple Studio Display). For all of the shortcomings of iPadOS, you can\u2019t argue with the M4 iPad Pro\u2019s brilliant new tandem OLED display technology<\/a>, allowing the device to serve as a versatile touch-based companion to the Mac that enables extras like Reference Mode for extreme color accuracy.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some things you should know before setting up Sidecar<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Before we look at how to setup and use Sidecar on the iPad Pro, there are a couple of things you should know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One<\/strong>: You don\u2019t need to connect your iPad to your Mac with a cable to use Sidecar, but you do need to be signed in with the same Apple ID on both devices. And if the interaction between the Mac and iPad is lagging, you should try a wired connection to see if that speeds things up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two<\/strong>: Sidecar is a Continuity feature. To use Continuity features, your devices must have Wi-Fi and Bluetooth turned on, and meet system requirements, which you can find at System requirements for Continuity on Apple devices<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to set up Sidecar<\/strong> on an iPad<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To set up Sidecar as an extra screen for your Mac, on your Mac, choose Apple menu\u00a0> System Settings, then click Displays in the sidebar.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Apple
Apple menu  > System Settings > Displays<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Click the \u201c+\u201d pop-up menu on the right and select your iPad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Connect
Connect your iPad<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

You can also use Control Center<\/a> to set up Sidecar. Click Control Center in the menu bar, click Screen Mirroring, then choose your iPad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After you set up Sidecar, the Screen Mirroring menu appears in the menu bar. You can change how you work with iPad from the Screen Mirroring menu at any time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Screen
Screen mirroring<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

For example, you can switch between using iPad as a mirrored or separate display. Or you can show or hide the sidebar or Touch Bar on iPad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After you set up your iPad as a second display for your Mac, you can change the options in Displays settings. On your Mac, choose Apple menu > System Settings, then click Displays in the sidebar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Display
Display options<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Select the name of your iPad on the right, then do one of the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Click the \u201cUse as\u201d pop-up menu, then choose whether you want to use your iPad as the main display or to mirror or extend your display.<\/li>
  2. Click the pop-up menu next to Show Sidebar and choose whether to show the sidebar on the left, the right, or not at all.<\/li>
  3. Click the pop-up menu next to Show Touch Bar and choose whether to show the Touch Bar on the top, the bottom, or not at all.<\/li>
  4. Turn on \u201cEnable double tap on Apple Pencil.\u201d<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    From the Displays option, you can also choose how you wish to arrange all your available screens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    How to Use Sidecar<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    With Sidecar up and running, you can:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1. Move windows from Mac to iPad: Drag a window to the edge of the screen until the pointer appears on your iPad. Or while using an app, choose Window > Move to iPad.<\/li>
    2. Move windows from iPad to Mac: Drag a window to the edge of the screen until the pointer appears on your Mac. Or while using an app, choose Window > Move Window Back to Mac.<\/li>
    3. Use the sidebar on iPad: With your finger or Apple Pencil, tap icons in the sidebar to show the down arrow icon or hide (the up arrow icon) the menu bar, show (the up arrow icon) or hide (the down arrow icon) the Dock, or show the onscreen keyboard. You can also tap one or more modifier keys, such as Control, to use keyboard shortcuts.<\/li>
    4. Use the Touch Bar on iPad: With your finger or Apple Pencil, tap any button in the Touch Bar. (The buttons you see will depend on what app you\u2019re using or what task you\u2019re undertaking).<\/li>
    5. Use Apple Pencil on iPad: With your Apple Pencil, tap to select items such as menu commands, checkboxes, or files. If your Apple Pencil supports it (and you selected the option in Displays settings), you can double-tap the lower section of your Apple Pencil to switch drawing tools in some apps. (See Apple\u2019s support article Pair Apple Pencil with your iPad<\/a>.  For more info.)<\/li>
    6. Use gestures on iPad: Use basic gestures, such as tap, swipe, scroll, and zoom, as well as gestures for entering and editing text. Switch between the Mac desktop and the iPad on iPad: Swipe up from the bottom edge of your iPad with one finger to show the Home Screen. To show the iPad Dock, swipe up and pause. To show the App Switcher, swipe up and pause in the center of the screen. To return to the Mac desktop, swipe up, then tap the Continuity icon. <\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      How to disable Sidecar<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      When you\u2019re ready to quit SideCar, on you iPad tap the Disconnect icon at the bottom of the sidebar on iPad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \"Disconnect\"
      Disconnect<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n


      You can also disconnect on your Mac by clicking the active iPad listed in the Screen Mirroring menu in the menu bar.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
