I really, really hate Stage Manager on the iPad, but I want to use an external display to allow me to have 3 or 4 apps open at a time and all showing. I.e. not just mirroring my old style multitasking display on the external monitor.

Come on @apple

    On days that I know I will only join meetings and reply to mails, I just take my iPad to the office. Combined with a BT keyboard and mouse, plugged into the big screens (USB-C), it’s just like a full PC.

    You can move windowed apps around, arrange them just fine, especially if you extend instead of mirror the iPad screen. But that only works with mouse and keyboard, not with touch only.

    So…do that? With stage manager on external displays, I don’t think the awfulness will be so prevalent. I’m with you, but I think I’m missing a facet of the issue here.
