So imagine my surprise when Stage Manager on a Mac worked-and worked pretty well. Suffice it to say that my expectations for the Mac version of Stage Manager-available as an off-by-default optional feature in Control Center or the Desktop & Dock settings-were not high when I finally decided to bite the bullet in a near-final Ventura beta.
Apps interact with each other in unpredictable ways, basic features ( like right-to-left reading) don't seem fully baked, and the only reliable thing about it is how frequently it crashes. And for what it's worth, I don't think I've ever seen as many complaints about a new Apple feature as I have about Stage Manager on the iPad (last year's attempted-and-aborted Safari redesign comes close). I'm not a huge iPad multitasking person, but I've been tracking Stage Manager's progress through the Apple enthusiast/writer/developer crowd I follow on Twitter. Apple has been unusually (if reluctantly) public with the troubles it has had with Stage Manager on the iPad, going so far as to delay iPadOS from September to October and kick the multi-monitor version to a later release.
