Just curious! Does anyone use an Ipad for any aspect of their business?

Charlotte,

I do not. I do use a Mac because I need more than a tablet can offer. I would bet that there are some who only use an Ipad though.

Thank you for your reply

It doesn't necessarily have to be just an Ipad. Interested in whether people use one alongside their main PC's/ laptops and for what purpose. I have a laptop and a desktop and my Ipad sits looking a bit sorry for itself hahah

I use my iPad for email management, copy-editing/proofreading, and social media management when I need to be away from my home office but don't feel like dragging along my laptop.

Like connecting the dots, I use my iPad when I am away from the home office. I love Mac and think that it is more productive to use for business and I absolutely love the cloud storage option!

But work wise, it is just too time consuming to do the typing for anything longer than a social media post on the iPad.

Not me. I can't seem to work on small devices like cps and pads. I just use them when I am away from my work space and I had to check emails. But more than this, I will have to say pass.

I use a Samsung ATIV Smart PC/ tablet. It works as fully functioning PC when I need it to and it can convert into a tablet when I need a tablet. I love it! it does have small hard drive but since I use a cloud based client network that has not been a problem. I use my tablet more than my laptop and desk top combined because it allows me to run both my companies no matter where I am because it support Office 365 even in the tablet mode, unlike the IPAD I had originally, which was limited to only simple internet task due to poor functionality

I use my Ipad to check e-mails and I have installed Buffer on it so that when I see an interesting article while I'm browsing, I can add it to Buffer right away!

The Ipad is a great tool. I actually found an excellent app on the Ipad that allows me to connect to my laptop as a remote and access everything on my laptop. The app is called "Jump" it allows me to connect to my laptop and I can work on my laptop from my Ipad. I think it is a great tool because this way if a client needs something or document that is on my laptop and I am not by laptop, I am still able to meet that client's need by accessing the Jump app.

I have a tablet I bought from Walmart for like 100 bucks thinking that it would be a great way to do biz related things when I didn't feel like dragging out my laptop if I wanted to work away from home for the day or something. What a joke...I can't do crap on the tablet - way too small and this is why I'm glad I bought a cheap tablet & didn't go with an iPad like I thought about. I've tried using my son's iPad and it just frustrates me, like my tablet. I have to have my laptop to get anything done. Just can't work on a tablet/iPad - way too hard/frustrating for me.
