I really love that Apple has offered the center stage feature on the iPad and I was really excited to try it out HOWEVER I am so bummed that this feature isn’t available on the iPad Air 4th generation. Will this be a feature that I’ll be able to access in the future with new updates? 🤞
iPad Air, iPadOS 15
Due to limitations of internal hardware, the new Stage Manager feature introduced with iPadOS 16.1 is only available for these models of iPad:
Feature availability is usually limited by system hardware - CPU and available RAM being critical to some advanced functionality.
iPad models supporting Stage Manager have an M2, M1 or A12X CPU (upon which the M-series CPUs are reportedly based) - with at least 8GB RAM. The iPad Air4 has only 4GB RAM.
Whether or not a functionally limited version of Stage Manager, compatible with models of iPad that do not meet the current hardware requirements, will ever be released is unknown.

When a Feature is Added:
Time will tell. So, recommend it to Apple.

Recommend this as an idea to Apple. Apple may not get back you, but the more feedback they receive on this, the more they will know what their customers prefer, and what to consider in iOS versions to come.
