Devon Dundee is host this week and is interviewing Tim Chaten, the host of iPad Pros and Vision Pros, about his experiences so far creating and using a M1 MacPad based on the M1 MacBook Air. We also touch a bit on iPadOS 18 that was released in beta just a few days ago as of recording.
For a full breakdown of WWDC 2024 make sure to check out Vision Pros episode 17 with Matt Birchler. In that episode we spent two and a half hours breaking down all of the announcements from the keynote: https://visionpros.fm/2024/06/11/episode-17-visionos-2-and-wwdc-2024-with-matt-birchler/
