凭借其较新的 iPad 以及从 iOS 11 开始的重大举措,Apple极大地改进了将设备用作生产力工具的功能。如果您在Mac OS和Launchpad中使用过(Launchpad)扩展坞(dock)来启动应用程序,请查看 iOS 11 和 12 中的 iPad 扩展坞。
你会相信这是一张 iPad 的照片,而不是打开Launchpad的(Launchpad)Mac吗?
一些粉丝说,有了 iOS 11——iOS 12 肯定会通过其他性能改进提高这一分数——苹果的 iPad 就像一个全新的设备。享受这篇文章,让我们知道你的想法。
使用 iOS Dock(Using the iOS Dock)
我们知道如何将 iOS 应用程序拖到屏幕底部的菜单栏,但通常是按住应用程序几秒钟,直到图标开始弹跳。
现在,在 iPad 上,人们可以更轻松地将项目拖放到 Dock - 就像在Mac OS中一样。这使得 iOS 扩展坞成为启动最常用应用程序的最简单方法。这个 iOS 扩展坞还使拆分视图多任务处理更易于使用。
只需将(Add)应用程序向下拖动即可将它们添加到文档中。所以在这三张照片中,我将App Store应用程序移到了 Dock 上。点击(Tap)并按住应用程序大约一秒钟,然后开始拖动。您不再需要等待震动效果开始。
现在在这张 iPad Dock 的图片中,请注意最近使用的应用程序位于右侧,其他 Dock 应用程序显示在左侧以便于打开。
要在另一个应用程序中访问 iOS 扩展坞,只需轻触并从屏幕底部向上轻扫一小段距离。如果您从底部向上滑动并转到屏幕中央,它将带您回到主屏幕。这就是 iPhone X 和 XS 上滑动的工作方式。
iPad 上的多任务处理(MultiTasking on the iPad)
iOS 保留了传统的菜单按钮双击选项来查看打开的应用程序。在 iPad 版 iOS 11 中,您还会在此处看到控制中心(Control Center)。在 iOS 12 中,控制面板(Control Panel)仅在您从右上角向下滑动时才会显示,例如 iPhone X。
请注意,从屏幕底部向上滑动以显示 Dock 也会显示相同的视图。
有关在 iOS 中充分利用控制中心(Control Center)的更多信息,请参阅我们最近关于自定义控制中心(Customizing Control Center)和在控制中心中使用 3D Touch(Using 3D Touch In Control Center)的文章。
对于拆分视图多任务处理:
首先,检查Settings中的(Settings)Allow Multiple Apps是否已打开。
接下来,打开您要使用的应用程序,例如Mail、Word、Pages或Twitter。向上滑动(Swipe)以查看Dock。
开始(Start)将第二个应用程序从 Dock 拖到屏幕上,当您看到它开始显示时,继续向上拖动它。
如果您将其向上拖动,但不是在屏幕的最右侧,您会看到第二个应用程序与第一个应用程序重叠,Apple称之为滑过。在此视图中,您可以在两个应用程序之间拖放。
从第二个应用程序顶部的实心条拖动到屏幕顶部的右侧,将 iPad 和应用程序置于拆分视图(Split View)模式。
这允许用户通过触摸将两个窗口的大小调整为他们喜欢的大小。因此,要将照片中的照片(Photos)放入正在处理的电子邮件中,首先展开照片(Photos)窗口。
然后选择缩略图并将其拖到电子邮件中。
切换两个应用的位置非常容易:只需从一个应用的顶部手柄拖动即可。此外,在拆分视图中,当需要更多信息时,很容易将第三个应用程序滑入幻灯片中。不过,此时事情可能会变得有些疯狂。
当您将第三个应用程序滑过时,如果您点击任何其他应用程序,第三个应用程序将隐藏在右侧。要再次查看,只需从屏幕的右边缘向左滑动。在这里,我有拆分视图中的新闻(News)和Safari ,以及幻灯片中的(Safari)App Store。
考虑一下您最常用的生产力应用程序。以下是一些更有用的分屏示例:
- 打开邮件
- 将照片添加到您的电子邮件
- 发送电子邮件时检查您的日历
- iPad 上的 MS Word(或 Pages)
- 打开照片(Photos)以将图形添加到文档中
- 在 iPad 上打开Safari或Chrome浏览器,将(Chrome)URL(URLs)和图像拖到文档中,并轻松复制和粘贴文本。
- 打开新闻(News)应用程序将故事放到您的文档中——这在Pages中比在Word中效果更好。
- 多任务处理还允许来自YouTube或照片(Photos)的视频剪辑与您的其他应用程序一起运行
- 此外,但仅当您使用密码管理器(Password Manager)时,将凭据输入应用程序要容易得多。下面的示例使用 1Password。
- 将 1Password for iPad 放入您的 iPad 底座
- 打开需要您的凭据的应用程序
- 将 1Password(Drag 1Password)拖入Slide Over并使用 3D Touch将其打开。
- 搜索应用凭证,将用户名和密码拖入应用字段,方便登录。
最后,请注意一些有助于此处的有用手势。只需(Just)在拆分视图上向右滑动或在应用程序上滑动以将其移出屏幕,然后向左滑动即可将其返回。另一个好方法:在任何拆分视图中,要立即访问主屏幕,在屏幕上并拢四五个手指!
我们希望这些技巧能够帮助您更好地利用装有 iOS 的 iPad 的生产力。享受!
iPad MultiTasking Tips to Increase Productivity
With its newer іPads and starting significantly with iOS 11, Apple has dramatically improved the devіces usе as a рroductіvity tool. If you have usеd the dock in Mac OS and Launchpad to launch apps, check out the iPad dock now in iOS 11 and 12.
Would you believe this is a pic of an iPad and not a Mac with Launchpad open?
Some fans say that with iOS 11 – and iOS 12 certainly ups this score with other performance improvements – that Apple’s iPad is like a brand-new device. Enjoy this article, and let us know what you think.
Using the iOS Dock
We know how to drag iOS apps to the menu bar at the bottom of the screen, but normally by holding down an app for several seconds until the icons start bouncing around.
Now, on iPad, one can much more easily drag and drop items to a dock – just like in Mac OS. This makes the iOS dock the easiest way to launch your most used apps. This iOS dock also makes split view multitasking much easier to use.
Add apps to the doc just by dragging them down. So in these three pics, I move the App Store app to the dock. Tap and hold the app for about a second and then start dragging. You no longer have to wait for the shaking effect to start.
Now in this picture of the iPad dock, notice that recently used apps are on the right and other dock apps appear on the left for easy opening.
To access the iOS dock while in another app, simply touch and swipe up from the bottom of the screen a short distance. If you swipe up from the bottom and go to the center of the screen, it will bring you back to the home screen. This is how swiping works on the iPhone X and XS.
MultiTasking on the iPad
iOS maintains the traditional, menu button double-click option to view open apps. In iOS 11 for iPad, you’ll also see Control Center here. In iOS 12, the Control Panel only shows up when you swipe down from the top right, like the iPhone X.
Note that swiping up from the bottom of the screen to expose the dock also shows this same view.
For more on making the most of Control Center in iOS, see our recent pieces about Customizing Control Center and Using 3D Touch In Control Center.
For Split View Multitasking:
First, check that Allow Multiple Apps is turned on in Settings.
Next, open an app that you want to use, like Mail, Word, Pages, or Twitter. Swipe up to see the Dock.
Start dragging a second app from the dock up the screen, and when you see it start to show, continue to drag it upward.
If you drag it up, but not to the far right of the screen, you’ll see the second app overlap the first app, something that Apple calls slide over. In this view, you can drag and drop between the two apps.
Drag from the solid bar at the top of the second app, to the right, top of the screen, to put the iPad and the app into Split View mode.
This allows the user to, at a touch, resize the two windows to their preferred size. Thus, to drop a photo from Photos into an email one is working on, first expand the Photos window.
Then choose the thumbnail and drag it to the email.
It’s very easy to switch positions of the two apps: just drag from the top handle of one app. Also, in split view, it’s easy to bring a third app into slide over, when even more information is needed. Though, things can get a bit wild at this point.
When you have the third app in slide over, if you tap on any of the other apps, the third app gets hidden to the right. To view it again, just slide from the right edge of the screen to the left. Here I have News and Safari in split view and the App Store in slide over.
Consider your most used productivity apps. Here are some more useful split-screen examples:
- With Mail open
- Add photos to your email
- Check your calendar while sending an email
- MS Word (or Pages) on your iPad
- Open Photos to add graphics to your document
- Open Safari or Chrome browser on your iPad to drag URLs and images into your document and easily copy and paste text.
- Open News app to drop stories to your document – this works better in Pages than Word.
- Multitasking also allows video clips, from YouTube or Photos, to run alongside your other apps
- Also, but only if you use a Password Manager, it’s much easier to enter credentials into apps. The example below uses 1Password.
- Put 1Password for iPad into your iPad dock
- Open the app that requires your credentials
- Drag 1Password into Slide Over and use 3D Touch to open it.
- Search for the app credential, and drag the username and password into the app fields for easy sign in.
Last, note some useful gestures that assist here. Just swipe to the right on a split view or slide over app to move it off the screen, then swipe left to bring it back. Another good one: in any split view, to immediately access the home screen, pinch four or five fingers together on the screen!
We hope these tips will be helpful to take more advantage of productivity on your iPad with iOS. Enjoy!
