Drives me batty.īack to Knightwise’s problem. It’s so stupid – the keyboard literally fills 40% of the screen. More than a year after the 12.9″ iPad Pro came out, Facebook to this day has not yet implemented the API to recognize this bigger device and give us the proper keyboard. It takes up at most 20% of the display leaving the rest of the screen for your application. The 12.9″ iPad Pro is enormous, so a full-sized, on-screen keyboard can fit quite nicely in a small area across the bottom of the screen in landscape mode. It’s up to the developers to use these APIs.

Apple provides APIs (application programmable interfaces) to allow developers to do interesting things with their apps. Let’s listen to him explain this in his own words:

In that way he can have his two windows up side by side and highlight his book with the stylus in one window while making a mind map in the second window. In the mean time, he’s using his Surface Pro 4, running Windows 10 with the Microsoft stylus. The problem he found though was that he couldn’t use the Kindle app in split screen and wonders whether iOS 11 would fix the problem. He was hoping to get an iPad Pro and use split screen to view the book on one side and the mind map on the other side. He outlines his talks using a Mind Mapping program called X-Mind from. He uses these highlights in creation of talks he gives to other entrepreneurs.

He reads his books electronically in the Kindle app in ePub format, and he likes to highlight as he reads. Our old friend Knightwise is back with an interesting problem to be solved.
