Android tablets are improving with powerful options like the OnePlus Pad and unique offerings like the Pixel Tablet, but the Google Play Store remains a disaster for tablet apps. Particularly when it comes to content creation, a task that tablets are well-suited for, it’s basically a black hole on Android.
By comparison, Apple’s iPad continues to chug along, providing users with apps that bridge the gap between the apps you may use on your laptop to create and edit videos and music. Admittedly, Apple isn’t perfect in this regard, either. Not all supposedly “tablet-optimized apps” are truly designed for the size and capabilities of the iPad. However, developers of powerful professional-grade content creation apps are designing iPad apps that take advantage of the potent Apple silicon M1 and M2 chips now available in the iPad Air and iPad Pro models.
