What do you need to use the Apple iPad for business?

The App Store offers many apps to write reports and notes with. The most well-known are the Microsoft Office programs, such as Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Keep in mind that you need a Microsoft 365 to make use of them. If you don't have an account, the pre-installed Apple apps are the solution. These are similar to the Microsoft Office programs, but they're called different. You can use Pages for text processing, Numbers to make spreadsheets, and Keynote to make presentations.

Connect a physical keyboard to the Apple iPad if you type a lot, it's more comfortable to work with. You can also add a mouse to create a worthy alternative for your laptop. Apple offers the Smart Keyboard and the Magic Keyboard. These covers with keyboard are easy to connect to the magnetic Smart Connector on the side of your iPad. In addition to that, these covers have a built-in stand so you can put your iPad in a viewing angle that you like. The Magic Keyboard does have a trackpad, so you don't necessarily need a separate mouse.

With the right protection, you prevent your iPad from getting damaged by keys or other sharp objects in your bag. There are leather and other book cases that protect both the front and back of the tablet, for example. This also gives the iPad a luxurious look. Do you work with sensitive information? Choose a screen protector with a privacy filter. This way, you're the only one who can see what's happening on the screen.

Do you own or work at a company where you want to use Apple on a large scale? The Apple software and devices are highly suitable for it. One of the reasons for this is that the software and your iPad or MacBook work together seamlessly, which is called the Apple ecosystem.
