Fellow iPad owners, what are your favorite uses for the iPad?

by•
I'm pretty basic when it comes to technology- I've had a smartphone and a computer since my college days and that's pretty much been enough for me. I got an iPad from a relative as a gift last week, and found myself not reaching for it as much. What do you guys use your iPad for? I know a lot of people use it to write notes, design, read, etc... but is there anything crucial that I'm missing? Let me know! Thanks :)

I've ipad air with keyboard and my main usage is reading/answering emails. I also use it for writing blog posts and watching series. It's basicly a modern typewriter for me :)

Netflix Journaling TikTok – which I've removed from my phone Also, I've set my phone to have way fewer notifications (just top headlines in news, work email, calls, a few other top priority apps for my home), but I've let the notifications fly on my iPad. I often have it sitting next to my computer so I can see the notifications when I'm working but not when I'm out and about and don't want my phone buzzing every few minutes. I try and make my iPad more of the "not-phone" device that I pick up when I want to waste time.
Public speaking - I use it for notes. Travelling - I use it for Netflix / Amazon Video.

It's pretty much becoming my go-to-device for work. I use: - Notion: to organise my life, work tasks, book writing, planning new projects - Procreate: I love to draw and it comes in handy whipping for drawing illustrations for websites - Figurative (Figma for iPad): So I can check on UI designs and make changes on the fly if I need to - Netflix/YouTube: When I wanna laze - Domain (Aussie): Looking at houses and dreaming about the one I want to buy - Spark: For managing all of my email accounts on an ipad makes it so easy to manage

@stealthywizard Wow, I didn't know that Figma came out with an editing version, thanks for letting me know! My teammates will be stoked about this :)

Using an iPad Pro with Magic Keyboard attachment – it’s basically replaced everything that isn’t coding from my MacBook. Darkroom for photo editing, otherwise casual Netflix/YouTube/Twitter. Highly recommend trying out Muse (https://museapp.com/) for any kind of brainstorming/planning/ideation – really is a one of a kind product built for iPad (and Apple Pencil)

Well, Adobe and Affinity got pretty good design apps. I use it whenever I need to create a quick social media post or other graphics. Also Evernote: I create content while walking in the park.
