iPad Multitasking

For whatever reason, Apple brought multitasking to the iPad a little late in the game. It took a lot of clamoring from consumers and more than a couple humbling TV ads from competitors for them to get the ball rolling. iOS 9 introduces several new multitasking features including Split View (which only works on the iPad Air 2, iPad mini 4 and the upcoming iPad Pro), Picture-in-Picture and Slide Over.

The popular image editor Pixelmator has been updated to version 2.1. The update adds support for iOS 9 multitasking features such as Split View and Slide Over. The app also now supports 8K resolution images and Open in Place image management across iOS devices.

Pixelmator users can now edit pictures within the app while performing other tasks side-by-side, such as surfing Safari, or use the Slide Over feature to open a second app without leaving the photo editor.
