As Part of Making the iPad as powerful as Mac, Apple was transferred to pre-viewing in iPados. This is how it stands in the iPados 26 against MacOS Tahoe.
MAC users will be extremely familiar with the main idea of the Preview application. In fact, if you have a PDF file, a document or image that you want to check, you can open it using pre -viewing and quickly viewing.
This gave users MAC a light application that does not necessarily require the opening of other tools such as Photoshop, or you even need to install an application for reading PDF files.
The simplicity of opening applications can make it almost invisible, being in the middle of the task, but the application really offers more useful functions for annotation and notes.
Before and with the iPados 18 there was no special pre -viewing application. Since the operating system worked mainly from the working process, the first application, and not from the approach of the first file, you, as a rule, were already in the right application before opening the file.
as for the advanced functions, which are previously viewed on the MACOS, given in the table, the closest thing on the iPad was to use the Files application or to configure the PDF in the notes.
with the introduction of the iPados 26, this pre-viewing application finally appears on the smaller screen of the tablet. In the release of the operating system and an increase in performance, it leads to the iPad even more in accordance with the MAC for the utility.

the first big difference betweeen the iPados and MacOS of Preview IS how do you look at it when opening when opening Applications directly, without files.
The MacOS version opens with a dialog window to open a file that you want to view. This is very utilitarian in the approach, but in fact it does not need to be done more than it.
You cannot run the dialog box similar to this in the iPados, so the iPad pre-viewing opens with a large number of application based on applications. The upper third is displayed “Pre -View”, reminding you of what kind of application it is, while the lower two -thirds consists of a pile of badges and miniatures for files that you can open using the application.

Gently, there is a side panel button that raises more options, but also deleys some filtration parameters from the top after turning on. This is a good piece of cover with the iPados user interface.
Of course, you can use files and select to open a document in preliminary viewing instead of other applications that can be installed that can open it.
After you open the file, you are met by quite similar and minimalist interfaces in both applications. Each has a strip of icons of functions along the top, above content and side.
Apple, apparently, wants the main attention to be paid to what you first view for both applications, with other available functions, but remained unobtrusive.

When it comes to the user interface, there is a menu line for consideration on MacOS, which includes all the functions that you can perform in preliminary viewing.
With changes in the iPados 26, there is also a line of the menu for use on the tablet, providing the same function. For MAC users who begin to use iPad, as well as performance users, this will be a very useful addition.

Viewing available types of files, it seems that the MacOS version has a much better coating, at least in working with formats that usually do not treat the average user iPad. The IPADOS 26 pre -viewing version may not be as useful as the Mac Edition, but it still makes the basics.
Pre-viewing in maturity
Pre-viewing on the Mac was and is still one of The simplest ways to look at the document, preserving users and resources in unfulfilled applications for opening for opening Pelek for non -fabrication for an uncontrolled application.
this was actually not a problem for the iPad with its application. The Apple solution was not excellent, but applications such as Goodreader. With the iPados 26, preliminary viewing, this is very useful when considering filling out PDF files and other documents with the quick return time.
, although not as useful as the MacOS version, which is an important tool, preliminary viewing on the iPados 26 is still impressive on its own. Something that should save the most productive iPad users who want the iPad to be more Mac, happy.
This is not necessarily the biggest improvement for iPados, but it really brings parity to the table to the table.
