Frequently Asked Questions

Can complex desktop UIs with many toolbars convert well?
Yes. Toolbars become tab bars or toolbars in iOS. Floating panels become sheets or popovers. The key adaptation is touch target sizing — all interactive elements are enlarged to minimum 44pt tap targets.
What about drag-and-drop functionality?
Desktop drag-and-drop is mapped to iOS drag-and-drop APIs (UIDragInteraction, UIDropInteraction). Multi-item drag and cross-app drag is supported on iPad.
