As someone who doesn’t do anything fancy on computers, I can attest that my iPad completely replaced my laptop. It also replaced my notebooks and textbooks. I absolutely love it.
I wish my iPad could replace my laptop but as a developer it’s almost impossible without an actual desktop OS. But It still comes very much in handy for research tasks.
Perfect timing on this video! I just got an iPad Air to be kind of a hub for my life and I'm working on setting it up. I don't necessarily have the same needs as you, but I did get some helpful info in regards to the pencil (which I've been trying to decide on) and keyboard case, but mostly the best bit of info is the reminder to leave the social media and email off for deep work and focus. The fact that my email and social media is always so accessible makes getting and staying focused so difficult and one of the reasons I got the tablet was to increase my productivity and create systems for my life, so leaving them off is the best option for me I think. Thanks for this video.
I really like to work on my ipad as well. It's easy to take it to a park, sit down, spend time in nature while being creative. I really like your videos and always feel inspired. I wish my channel can also inspire other people to feel more creative and to see beauty all around them. Keep up with the good work. 🙏
I just recently did the same thing, got the 12.9” iPad Pro myself, love the magic keyboard and pencil, and it really is awesome for moving around to get ideas and research. It’s great! Something different from sitting at the computer all day too which is nice.
I'm very much a Windows user, but lately I've been considering getting an iPad of some sort, because so many productivity apps and tools only exist in the Apple ecosystem. I can't yet justify the cost to myself, but it's interesting to see how someone uses their iPad with a full process :)
Hahaha. Have you tried putting on a RUclips video, just letting it play in the background, and using it as a kind of co-working tool? That might be a helpful baby step between procrastinating and doing something.
I had to remove social media apps from my ipad when i got a 64gb iPad Air to make some room. It was a day and night difference in my work attitude. I eventually upgraded to 256gb iPad Air for future proofed storage, I’m keeping the same work/school focused environment for my ipad. It’s just that much better when it comes to productivity. Secondly, iPad has became such a huge part of my academia/work workflow. I write a ton of equations for zoom presentations and academic research paper annotations. This was near impossible on my computer, but it’s such a breeze on my iPad. It works perfectly with my laptop. I really love what they did with ipad.
Just quick tip about distractions and how to stay focused especially in smart devices sometimes if you get distracted with some apps delete them it's not so hard to download them again when you finish your work (other then the fact most of us have a high-speed Internet connection) I use this tactic in long periods and short term whenever I have finals exams or need to focus on some projects
Funny you should mention using the iPad as a productivity only device. One of these day i was working on my pc and had to idea to create other "users" inside my own computer for different tasks. So i have my gaming user, where everything game is installed and on display, i have my university user with my university email and all my books and classes and nothing else, and last i have a user for my own company, where all my company data is mirrowed and if i need to i can work from home. And its funny to observe how your mind just clicks into the task at hand by just login into the correct user. Massive help....hope it helps some of you as well. Cheers!
No seriously that is a life saver! I think using your iPad like a bigger phone is peoples initial go to. But if you use it with a serious mindset, and keep just the bare minimums on there you get distracted so much less!
@@devinotero1798 no but you can probably not let messages sync from your phone to your iPad so the same distracting messages don’t pop up on both but rather just the phone
I specifically bought a tablet for all the reading I do for university and it has been such a useful purchase! Especially because I can easily take it with me to class (when that was still a thing ;)) and even work and write on it in between classes if necessary. Best 2020 purchase!
IPad is the best device to read and learn. No second way around it. Seriously. I wasn’t a big Apple friend but iPad truly elevated my learning efficiency few levels up.
You can save the articles in Pocket and highlight what you read there. Pocket also has an integration with Readwise, so Pocket highlights are visible in Readwise as well.
Its times like this I miss being able to use the big white 90's windows machines for typing and research. And if you've ever written anything on an electronic typewriter there is something so addicting about hearing it clacking away to the rhythm of you fingers. It's almost therapeutic to have something so tactile to channel your thoughts into your fingertips. Modern keyboards really do not give Me that satisfaction.
Good video, but just funny sometimes to see channels like this put out a video some months ago acting like they have found the definitive way to read and take notes for themselves and hence strongly suggesting it to the viewers, for their whole system to be altered later on. Nice overview of setup in this video, but think it’s just a reminder for everyone not to get too hung up on ways of doing things. Don’t think ‘Thomas Frank reads like this so I should try that’. Instead realise that these ‘productivity’ channel producers are learning all the time too, the same as everyone else.
@Cealondin 👏🏻 I was watching one earlier today, and realised it was an older one by a creator whose productivity app recommendation video I had just watched the other day! Also, workflows are highly personal. I’d rather pay outright for a clipboard app I can park in slide-over, than pay a hundred and fifty bucks for an app subscription that wouldn’t really speed up my efficiency. I’ve deleted so many apps, and use the native apps as much as possible. Less clutter, snappy workflow.
Ooh, I'm gonna have to bookmark this and re-watch it again because this seems to be super super handy for research papers and essays to get links and stuff. Thank you very much for mentioning this. I'm writing a list of what apps I should download when my Ipad comes in tomorrow :D
I will definitely experiment with the Readwise & Command combination, it will surely help with my research process which is all over the place! Thanks for sharing, Thomas!
A couple of questions on Notion which I am very new to. Can I add a table to a notion page so that it works when typing in the same way as an Excel spreadsheet would so I can have three columns titled Video, Time Code and Voice Over. Secondly can you print out the script once written. I do not seem to be able to do this. Thanks
While you can't have a simple table inside Notion, Notion databases can function like the table you described. As for printing, you can click the three dots in the upper right hand corner and export a page as a PDF or other type of file, and then print that.
I still do print out papers to read and highlight when i need zero distractions. Then scan them with my phone and save to digital notes. Some of the online resources my university provides don’t allow this or are too large to print - then the ipad comes in handy

Have you had a chance to use IOS 16 Beta and Stage Manager? Awesome multitasking functionality. Your tip about the Command App just made viewing this video even more worthwhile. BONUS BABY! I'm a big, big iPad user along with Kindle, Readwise, and dump a lot of content from Safari into custom Bookmark Folders for later review. Command will change my workflow.
Sir, may I please keep the RUclips app on mu iPad... otherwise I can't watch your videos while double-tasking (cookin'...)? But yes, great tip about not having social media on it if it's a work- dedicated device. I'm trying to use mine for research and music, that's it. And YT...
I do have RUclips on it, and I've found it's not a temptation while reading or writing. Typically, my brain wants to run to Slack, email, or Twitter when I'm feeling task resistance, so those are the apps that absolutely have to stay off the iPad
As someone who has the 2020 12.9 inch iPad Pro I would recommend getting a laptop and one of the cheaper iPads if you have laptop specific tasks, because the 12.9 is ALMOST a laptop but not really an iPad. But I love it so it work. I edit my RUclips videos using the iPad Pro.
Nice! I am not a tablet user as I am still very much based on my laptop but have been considering branching out to get a PC and maybe a tablet or ipad afterwards.
I like 11 version but I got 12.9 2020 Now I think it was a mistake,, it’s BIG and heavy 💔 But still an amazing device.. Thank you for Readwise I think it will help me a lot
Anybody else hear that periodic bass "oomph"? Or am I hearing things again...lol. Great job, Thomas. Partway through your skillshare courses. So great. Cheers.
Coming from a productivity point of view - keeping things simple and using the cloud for note-taking etc... you wouldn't need to get the higher-capacity versions of this iPad correct?
Hi Thomas, thanks for this video. Good stuff. I’m a bit of a Luddite and find setting up the integration between apps tricky. Do you have a step by step process guide available on how you have set up your system to be as productive and simple as possible? That would be very helpful. Thanks.
At about 2:45 in the video you start talking about the research step, and show a clip of RoamResearch, but don't talk about it. How does it fit in your process? Or do you use it for something else? Thanks!

Fantastic video, but if you are considering doing academic research and writing as opposed to creative work, iPad is a disaster in that domain (as someone who owns both the iPad Air and M1 air)
Any particular reason you say that? I recently bought the iPad Air (and also own a MacBook) because reading and annotating is such a great experience on the iPad. But I haven’t used it for academic research too heavily yet.
I strongly disagree. I guess it depends on what you study. I do linguistics, I think the iPad is the best object I’ve ever owned. I’ve had one for 3 years and never looked back.
Strongly disagree too. I did a lot of my research of my Master's Degree in History on an ipad mini as a way to do all my readings and highlights and keep track of them, capture quick ideas, etc., when I got home I just synched it and focused on writing and format editing on my mac, it was a very smooth process for me. Tbh, as long as you have an organized system you can make anything work in your favor.
I’ve noticed that with the Researchgate iOS/iPadOS app. It only supports portrait orientation, and automatically directs you to the app even if you open it in browser.
I’ve got an iPad and Logitech keyboard and Notion just does not work on the iPad. You have to click about 3 times for your cursor to stay in a block. Did you run into these issues? I’ve had to ditch Notion now for the iPad
About the 11" keyboard. These [ ], { } keys surely look tiny! I can't believe that this would be convenient for a programmer who needs these keys constantly. What are your experiences with it?
Do you have a video on using notion for the books? I’m brand new to IPad and just got it and I’m going through the bumps and blunders of learning how to incorporate and build a habit out of using it. I just downloaded notion and I use it for a to do list and I use to use kindle a lot but haven’t in a long time but I do like the iPad for reading in portrait mode is pretty nice :) I’m gonna download read wise right after this!
Just want to say, if you’re really on a budget - Get a smaller iPad thats like $400 - get a stylus from Amazon, there’s mock apple pens for $25-30 and a wireless keyboard for like $10 bucks and you’re set. The older iPads have Magic Mouse integration now too! I have a ( i think lol ) 2018 iPad / it’s a 9’7” and the ONLY downside is not being able to use external hard drives.
“I actually called the developers and they changed the code immediately”...
I digg the subtle flex Thomas 😂❤️🙌🏻
Friendly reminder: Buying an ipad pro isnt going to stop you from procrastinating.
These words are straight out of hell....

I just downloaded notion and I use it for a to do list and I use to use kindle a lot but haven’t in a long time but I do like the iPad for reading in portrait mode is pretty nice :) I’m gonna download read wise right after this!
Thanks Thomas.
That was helpful 😃
I think I am going to give up on self-actualization....
And just live vicariously through your videos!
Great video. I am curious. What do you write every day?
Thanks for the video!
Please teach us how to set up this database w/ Notion, Readwise, etc.

I want to get an iPad - but I don't understand what would be best. This helps a lot.
Just want to say, if you’re really on a budget - Get a smaller iPad thats like $400 - get a stylus from Amazon, there’s mock apple pens for $25-30 and a wireless keyboard for like $10 bucks and you’re set. The older iPads have Magic Mouse integration now too! I have a ( i think lol ) 2018 iPad / it’s a 9’7” and the ONLY downside is not being able to use external hard drives.
Hi Thomas
What's the red-shell box that's sitting on your desk, in between the monitors?
Keen to know what your workstation setup is like :)
Dude, are you not going to get an e-ink device? like REmarkable 2 or the Onyx Note Air?
