Discussion - iPad Multitasking
First introduced with iOS 9
Variants
Slide-Over
supported by ALL iPads on iOS 9
Split View
Slide-Over on steroids
iPad Mini 4, iPad Air 2, iPad Pro
Picture in Picture
All iPad apps opted-in
Apps with no Launch storyboard are opted out
UIRequiresFullScreen in Info.plist
Even “opted-out” apps are still running in a multitasking environment
Supporting multi-tasking in Instacart for iOS
Are we concerned about other apps impacting the perceived performance of your own app?
A push from Apple toward Universal apps?
Has multi-tasking effectively killed separate iPad / iPhone apps?
Is this a further “squeeze” of indie developers? Another “platform” that needs to be supported by a single purchase (iPhone / iPad / Apple Watch / whatever comes next)
