There are many changes within iPadOS15.


With iPadOS15, you are now able to freely position widgets amongst Apps on any of the Home Screens.


Widgets placed on a Home Screen now individually occupy one or more elements of a 4x6 icon grid. Home Screens without Widgets retain the familiar 5x6 icon grid. The slide-over Today View, previously seen in Portrait screen orientation from the first Home Screen, is still present - and is now also seen in Landscape. However, the revised slide-over Today view does not incorporate the Time and Time panel.


More information about the new Widgets can be found here:

The iPad User Guide is also a rich source of information - and is especially useful in becoming familiar with the many changes and new features introduced in iPadOS15. The Guide is available both online using a web browser (such as Safari), or as an Apple Books download:
