Along with the announcement of iOS 13, Apple officially unveiled a dedicated OS for iPads called iPadOS during the WWDC 2019 event. The new iPadOS includes Slide Over and Split View (multiple apps in slide over), same app in multiple spaces, new home screen, widgets in the home screen, external drives support and lot more.

While built on the same foundation as iOS, iPad has become a truly distinct experience. With powerful apps designed for a large Multi‑Touch display. Multitasking made simple with intuitive gestures. And the ability to drag and drop a file with a fingertip. It’s always been magical. And now it’s called iPadOS.
