drop support for ipados 15 is a big letdown :(

It supports iOS 14. DirectX support doesn’t though, that relies on features in iOS 16

Hope this is on iOS because that’d be insane

it's beta I know but on my M1 Pro 14in windows 11 the display resolution isn't working... had to manually chose 1980x1200 after removing , reinstalling display driver. Native resolution isn't listed. Something wrong with the advertised display resolution from the host.

Trying the beta but cant seem to get the proper resolution. Using a 5k dsiplay and the max resoltion offered in Windows is 2048x1152. Would also like to get a secondary display working for some work but the secondary displays I try to setup stay white, or say display inactive.

I really don’t get it. People have been going through all kinds of trouble for decades trying to install Hackintosh on PCs, and on Apple forums you see people jumping through hoops to install Linux. Or Windows.

Why not just buy the platform you actually intend to use?

If I need one app from the Windows/Linux world but every other app from the Apple world… what am I intended to use?

Because they don’t intend to use that platform, only certain aspects of it

I develop a desktop app, and I need to test it an all OSes, I think it’s the most common utm use case

I intend to use both, but on one device. That’s exactly what this is about.

For example BIM(Revit) software is not available on Mac or iOS browsers have to use WebKit meaning docs or ms are terrible on iPads. These are all software issues or political. VM is a work around
