Unfortunately, even if iPadOS were ‘fixed’ tomorrow, the entire platform is filled with baby apps, not desktop-class software. Almost every app you can think of is a lesser version of its desktop or web counterpart (with exceptions, of course), or is stripped down or nerfed in some way — be it in UI, or in input. Developers generally think of iPad as a lesser device, so will design lesser apps for it. iPad has an ‘app gap’
