He also says that Stage Manager is a “total experience that involves external display connectivity.” Why is an external display a requirement when most M1 iPad users don’t even use one? Then he talks about needing fast flash storage for the virtual memory, which only the M1 iPads have, but PowerPC Macs were using spinning hard drives for virtual memory 20 years ago. Stage Manager is also supported on older Macs with Intel processors-and older graphics-that are less capable than recent-but-not-M1 iPads. That processor also had great performance running more simultaneous apps than iPadOS supports. I don’t think it’s that pre-M1 iPads couldn’t support virtual memory, since even the A12Z in the DTK did.
I honestly don’t understand his argument. First, a combination of a lot of RAM and “extremely fast IO virtual memory” were needed to host multiple apps in the active bucket.Īs a result, Stage Manager requires an M1 iPad. In order to reach that level of responsiveness, several factors needed to collide. Something that has not been true of apps on macOS, which made heavy use of virtual memory. This meant that, historically, whatever apps were immediately accessible to the user needed to be entirely resident in RAM. On iPad, he notes, there is this tremendously high bar for interactive responsiveness and the experience where every app you can touch needs to be able to respond essentially instantaneously. This means, he says, that both perspectives are represented in this approach.įederighi says that the extremely high bar Apple has for interactive responsiveness was at the core of the issue. But Federighi says that two independent teams at Apple, one working from the iPad side and one working from the macOS side to try to make multiple workspaces more obvious and friendly, arrived at a similar concept and met in the middle. This approach to workspace management does appear to be very obviously iPad-centric.

Typical pro macOS user probably has things spread across a zillion Google Docs, Slack channels, various cloud services. Stage Manager does nothing for my 79 browser tabs I use to get work done. It’s nice macOS is getting attention, but demos seem to revolve around solving problems of imaginary person that uses only native, Apple-produced apps.

Related: where on earth is a system-level feature for tabbed windowing? That’s the kind of thing that should have been introduced several steps earlier than resizable, overlapping windows on iPad 👀 It seems less confusing than the current iPad multitasking system when multiple windows are involved. I think I might actually use it on iPadOS, when I have an iPad that supports it. Stage Manager on the Mac is not for me, but it seems like a useful feature for people who don’t want to manage windows but also don’t want everything full-screen. I’m not sure that it’s harder than a desktop. And for pro users? It’s far too rigid and opinionated, meddling. Who is it for? The long tail of users? It’s way too confusing and unpredictable, harder than a desktop.
I do feel Stage Manager has a bit of an identity crisis.
