Apple's iPadOS 26 introduces a major overhaul of multitasking, replacing Split View and Slide Over with a more flexible system that allows multiple resizable app windows, similar to Mac functionality, on compatible iPads, along with a new Liquid Glass design and enhanced user interface features.
Apple's iPadOS 26 introduces over 20 features that make the iPad more like a Mac, including resizable app windows, multiple open windows, a new menu bar, a true cursor, and enhanced file management, blurring the line between iPad and Mac capabilities.
Microsoft PowerToys has introduced a new feature called Crop and Lock, allowing users to crop app windows to display specific details. The feature offers two modes: a non-interactive Thumbnail crop that provides a live feed of the selected area, and a Reparent mode that allows for more interactivity but may have compatibility issues with certain apps. Crop and Lock is available for Windows 11 and Windows 10 v2004 or newer. However, there are some known issues, such as difficulties cropping maximized or full-screen windows and certain apps reacting poorly to being cropped.
