Comment on What are your technology mispredictions?
notthebees@reddthat.com 1 week agoThere’s a few Android phones that have it, old and new. I have an iPhone 16 at the moment and while it works with a dp-alt mode dock, it only mirrors the screen and nothing else. I think there’s some things you can do to trick the phone into enabling stage manager and other ipad features.

I’m still salty that Apple crooked my 6th gen iPad mini by not allowing Stage Manager on it to allow it to work with an external display. Like the iPhone, it just mirrors, which is bullshit. I don’t even care if it shuts off the built in screen because it can only run one display, I just wish it could be used as a portable computer.
iPadOS 26 brought actual Stage Manager to it, but it’s a gimped version that still doesn’t work properly with an external display.
As a result, I don’t really use my iPad these days.
