THE IPAD’S BRIEF STORY: Advances, Convenience, and Creativity In a short time, iPad technology has advanced in leaps and bounds, making the iPad near-identical to working on a laptop! With these noted improvements, like far less costly apps and the Apple pencil’s pressure and tilt sensitivity, many artists have set their computer aside to work exclusively on their iPad. Since most iPad apps can export to formats that are compatible with desktop applications, you’re able to have the best of both worlds! See Film courses for more iPad opportunities.
