Hi - and thank you for any help you can give me
I have an ipad and monitor - would like to be able to do split screen rather than mirror to be more productive - is there anyway to do this - I saw a couple of apps but they do not provide the same level of functionality that I get when I connect MacBook to monitors.
Again thanks for your help - have a great day

The tags appended to your post indicate that you have a sixth generation iPad Pro 12.9”.
Ensure you have updated your iPad to iPadOS 16.2. With this version installed, your iPad Pro supports Stage Manager - which allows you to display multiple applications independently on your iPad and connected external monitor.
The [often overlooked] iPad User Guide provides information about this and other features of your iPad and iPadOS. Here is a direct link to the appropriate section of the Guide:
Move, resize, and organize windows with Stage Manager on iPad - Apple Support
The full User Guide is available both online using a web browser (such as Safari), or as an Apple Books download:

The Tips App, installed by default on all new models of iPad, also leads you to the User Guide. In case you missed it, here is a link to the Tips App:

Apple also has a huge YouTube Channel - containing many videos and feature guidance:

Thank you so much for this great answer - had done (I thought) a reasonable amount of research but you are right, IPad User Guide was definitely not looked at!
You are very welcome.
I hope the direct link to information about Stage Manager has resolved your immediate issue.
