What Is a Stage Manager?

 

Stage Manager Combability

 

The stage manager app can work on all MacBooks using the macOS Ventura as well as on all Ipads models with M-series CPU such as the iPad Air 5th generation, 2021 11-inch iPad Pro, and the 2021 12.9-inch iPad Pro. Apple stated that the reason it only works on the devices with M-series CPU is because the Stage Manager app requires large internal memory, fast storage, and flexible external display I/O, all of which is present on these devices

 

How It Works

 

  • Mac

To start with Stage Manager on the Mac, head to the right corner of your menu bar to activate the control center. Next, click on the icon that shows the on/ off toggles. The next thing to do is to Select "Stage Manager" by clicking the button next to the Focus toggle. Then open apps just like you normally do from the dock. You will see the apps you recently launched as a standalone window in the forefront. It would help if you dragged open windows into active stacks or ran programs from the dock to create unique workplaces. You can switch between specified workspaces by clicking on the grouped programs on the left of the display.

  • iPad

Stage Manager makes multi-window capabilities available for time on iPads with the M1 chip, such as the fifth-generation iPad Air and the most recent iPad Pro. The latest Stage Manager system allows iPad users to run a maximum of four overlapping and resizable windows on one iPad, in contrast to prior versions of iPadOS that only allowed users to run two apps simultaneously. Additionally, iPadOS 16 supports external displays. External displays can now function as a genuine secondary monitor, and users have the option of opening an open an extra four windows on the display, providing for a total of eight open windows at once. Previously they could only be used for screen mirroring. Even better, users now can switch back and forth between windows on your iPad and on your external display. Furthermore, the keyboard model with the iPad requires that you remove the touch screen as it isn't compatible with that. Also, only the USB-C port can be connected using one line since lightning does not support one line communication.

 

To use Stage Manager on all supported iPad Air and iPad Pro models, swipe down your screen from the upper right corner to show the control center. After that, proceed to tap the stage manager button, which is indicated by a hollow rectangle glyph
