One of the great things about iPads is their combination of portability and a large screen. This makes them perfect for reading e-books, digital comics, and magazines. It also makes them a potential replacement for a paper notebook, especially when paired with a good stylus like the Apple Pencil. Of course, to replace someone’s sketchbook, journal, or notepad, the iPad needs a good notetaking app. As someone who used to love brainstorming ideas and writing short stories by hand, I’ve long been curious if the iPad could help me recapture that feeling. So, I decided to look at some of the most popular notetaking apps available for the iPad, all of which offer their core functionality for free (and most of which have premium versions with more features if you decide you love them).
Features such as Slide Over, Split View, Drag & Drop, and Picture in Picture are excellent tried and true iPad multitasking interfaces. However, iPadOS 16’s new feature called Stage Manager will help you take your productivity to new heights! To make use of Split View, you need an iPad Pro, iPad (5th generation or later), iPad Air 2 or later, or iPad mini 4 and later. For Slide Over, you will need an iPad Pro, iPad (5th generation or later), iPad Air 2 or later, or iPad mini 4 or later.

So how do you stop Apple Watch notifications during a workout? We’ll go over the best ways to prevent alerts while working out.
