iPadOS was released by the Apple company last night, in beta version, for iPad tablets, and an interesting change was implemented within it. More specifically, iPad tablets finally have mouse and touchpad support starting with iPadOS, and below you can see how everything works on tablets.
iPadOS has support for peripherals of this kind integrated for the accessibility system, so theoretically, almost everyone should be able to use them. Users can connect a mouse to the iPad both through the tablet's USB-C port and through Bluetooth, iPadOS offering extended support for those who need this functionality.
As you can see, iPadOS displays a dark gray button on the screen that simulates touches made on the screen, so we are not talking about an actual cursor. The idea itself is anyway interesting and very good, and that's because iPadOS is starting to turn iPad tablets into real substitutes for computers, under certain conditions.
Hello mouse support on iOS 13! It's an AssistiveTouch feature, and works with USB mice. @vitici nailed this pic.twitter.com/nj6xGAKSg0
