Apple's Preparing for the iPad Fold with iPadOS 26

We talk about how Apple's latest iPadOS 26 update is preparing us for the rumored iPad Fold, a massive 18.8-inch foldable device expected in The new Mac-like windowing system feels cramped on current iPads but would be perfect on a screen nearly twice the size, allowing for running multiple full-sized apps side by side without overlapping. This update is seen as Apple's long-term play, giving us a glimpse into the future of computing.
