I have been using my iPhone extensively, even for managing my business. Recently, I decided to purchase an iPad to enjoy a larger screen for my tasks. I opted for the latest base model, as I didn’t require much processing power.
One of my primary reasons for using the iPad instead of the iPhone was to handle my bookkeeping. This involves switching between a couple of apps and Safari, where I log in to my web-based bookkeeping software. I input information into forms on the site while fetching data from other applications, such as invoice numbers, total amounts, fees, and net amounts.
Essentially, I copy the necessary figures from other apps and paste them into Safari. However, I’ve encountered a frustrating problem with the new iPad. Each time I navigate away from Safari and return, all the entered numbers disappear and the forms reset.
This issue is reminiscent of older versions of Safari, which would freeze when memory was low. It’s puzzling that a brand new iPad lacks the capability to retain this information, especially since my older iPhone 13 Pro manages to do so without any issues. I am looking for solutions to this dilemma.
I attempted using split screen functionality, yet the other two apps I need for information aren’t compatible with it. I really hope I won’t need to invest in a more expensive iPad just to retain data in forms. Overall, aside from this issue, everything else about the new iPad meets my needs satisfactorily.
