Apple has confirmed that it will change the way major operating system updates are rolled out. The public build of the new iPadOS won't be released at the same time as the nextiOS. After Apple's usual September event, it's expected that the newest version of the operating system will arrive. The next iPadOS will be released this fall.

It won't offer iPadOS 16.0 to everyone, but it will offer iPadOS 16.1 for the public. It's not clear if Apple will release the two operating systems at the same time in order to get them back on track.

This is an important year for iPadOS. Apple said it has the ability to deliver iPadOS on its own schedule. iPadOS will be released in a free software update this fall.

Just as it released the iPadOS 16.1beta, the company made an announcement. Stage Manager is a multitasking tool for M1 powered iPad that allows users to have more control over windows. You will be able to overlap them as you please.

Stage Manager wasn't perfect in the first iPadOS 16beta. We found it to be a buggy experience that sometimes crashed an iPad that was plugged into an external display. Stage Manager is the main change in the iPadOS 16.1beta. This build is supposed to fix some of the feature's teething issues.

The Stage Manager issues were supposed to be solved by iPadOS 16. It was suggested that the OS would arrive in October. It's thought that Apple will release a new version of its operating system in October. Stage Manager is a better experience on the desktop than it is on the iPad.
