![]() Of course, I’ve used my Air since then test out the features coming to the Mac this fall. After about a week, I realized that my MacBook was no longer my immediate go to for, well., anything. I had to force myself to put down my iPad and pick up my MacBook. I started using iPadOS 17 first, mostly because it downloaded faster (and I wanted to install Sonoma onto a clean drive partition). With widgets, the iPad Lock Screen in iPadOS 17 can be your personal dashboard.Īs did a good many Apple customers, I downloaded and installed the developer betas of both iPadOS 17 and macOS Sonoma when they became available in June. iPadOS 17 finally makes the iPad into a laptop replacement. ![]() This is usually more an issue about the limitations of iPadOS or available apps than about processing power (the iPad Pro and Air now sport the same M1 and M2 processors as today’s Macs) or form factor. Or where certain tasks are better left to either a MacBook or even an iPhone. Similarly, when I discuss the iPad as a business device, there’s almost always a qualifier, someplace where I point out that the iPad is good for this but not for that. Often, I have both in my bag because there are times when the iPad might work perfectly fine for a particular task, but the MacBook Air and macOS work just a little better, or faster, or more intuitively. Even with an excellent keyboard (and sometimes a mouse), tasks that revolve around typing or multi-tasking have generally gone to my MacBook Air. I use it for work when it’s more convenient or when I’m doing a task that is more touch oriented. Yet the iPad has always remained something of a secondary device. I’ve done it so frequently and interchangeably with a MacBook that I don’t think I could accurately point to a single thing I've written in the past decade and confidently say “I did that one on my iPad.” I’ve even given advice about the best keyboards and keyboard cases for the iPad and iPad mini. I’ve used it for work tasks since about same time. I’ve advocated for the iPad as a work tool since the original was released in 2010. We take the security of Chrome extremely seriously, so we’re excited to be delivering these enhanced protections, and we’ve enjoyed collaborating with Adobe on this effort.I didn't expect to be writing so effusively about the iPad after Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference this year - then I downloaded the first developer beta of iPadOS 17 and things haven’t been the same since. Ultimately, this means a safer experience for you as you browse the web. And for the first time ever, Windows XP users have a sandboxed Flash, making them much safer online.Ĭhrome OS has had this deeper Flash sandboxing from the beginning, Linux has had it since Chrome’s last stable release, and Mac support is on the way. Now, thanks to a new plug-in architecture, Flash on Windows is inside a sandbox that’s as strong as Chrome’s native sandbox, and dramatically more robust than anything else available. Since 2010, we’ve been working with Adobe to sandbox the Flash Player plug-in to protect users against common malware. With last week’s Chrome Stable update, we took a major step forward in security by bringing an even deeper level of sandbox protection to Adobe Flash Player on Windows. Our goal is to improve each of these features, staying ahead of the bad guys to help keep you safe online. ![]() Some of the most important things keeping you safe in Chrome are Safe Browsing, auto-updates, and sandboxing. On the Chrome team, we’ve made it our mission to build a browser that helps protect you every step of the way, defending against pages that try to install malware or steal information without your knowledge. One of the great things about the web is that you can hop from page to page watching videos, playing games, or checking email without installing additional software that may pose a security risk to your computer.
