New Pulldown Menu Enhancement on the iPad
See the new Pulldown Menu enhancement in iOS 14 on the iPad.
In this video, I show you the new pulldown menu enhancement Apple add to the iPad in iPadOS 14. With the new Menu enhancement, the iPad gets a drop-down menus much like you see on the Mac. When you tap on an icon now, in some cases, instead of having the icon options take up your entire iPad display, they now show in a compact pulldown menu. See the new pulldown menus on the iPad introduced in iPadOS 14.
Video Transcript (video also has closed captions):
In this video, we’re going to take a look at another new enhancement that Apple added to iPadOS 14, pull-down menus with our pull-down menus. Instead of having a menu, take up the entire display of your iPad. We now get a nice little compact menu, much like what we see on the Mac. Let’s take a look at these new pull-down menus on the iPad.
Let’s go to my iPad. Let’s go and open up my files app. If we go to the upper left-hand side of the Files app, you’re going to see that I have this more icon. When I tap on this, I get more options. When we tap on this with iPadOS 14, we get it in a pull-down menu from here. We can see that we have a nice menu, a nice compact menu.
I can scan my documents, connect to a server, or edit my sidebar. It’s not taken up my entire display, which is what happened in past versions of iOS. When you tapped on a menu, let’s go over to the right side in most cases. Here. I have this icon. This is where I can select how I want to view my thousand folders and sort them when I tap on it.
We can see we have a nice pull-down menu from here. I select how I want to view my thousand folders and how I want them to be sorted. Let’s take a look at one more air where we have these pull-down menus. I’m going to press in on my home button. Now, when I long press on any one of these apps, let’s go over to my app store here.
This is where we would go. And. Place our iPad into that edit mode, the jiggling mode, or maybe what I want to do is access a particular feature of an app. If I long press on the app store, watch what happens. We get a pull-down from here. I can open up the app store and go immediately to search. I can redeem a promo code.
I can go right to my updates, or I can even, at my home screen. When we edit today, widget, I’m going to go over to my stocks here. I tap and hold on it or long-press. We get our pull down from here. I can add it to the widget at the home screen or remove the widget, much like the sidebar. I think what you’re going to see as we move forward with iPadOS, more developers embrace this pull-down menu.
So that’s a look at the new down enhancement we have on iPad. Oh, us, I tap and hold on an icon. And instead of getting a window that takes up my entire screen. What I’m going to get now is a pull-down menu. This is available within apps and an iPadOS itself, such as when we edit our home screen.
So that’s a look at the new pull-down enhancement available in iPadOS.
