New 2024 M4 iPad Pro and ultra resolution

[smoked (David Lurie)]

Are there any plans for Ultra resolution to become available on the new M4 iPad Pro?

Make use of the M1 processor on iPad Pros

Hey @swarmster, thanks for the message. Yes, we’re looking at this. I don’t have an ETA to share yet, but we have some prerequisite work happening currently at which point we’ll have more to share on improving graphics settings several platforms.

I am curious if there is an update on this: at least if there is a more solid timeline?

Hey everyone @Ride_Cyclery , I‘m curious about this as well. This machine has so much power and is such a great Tool for training, i think it should be a no-brainer! Please, investigate this as soon as possible. Thanks!

Is there ANY update on this before I buy a new M4 iPad?

[Teddy_Svoronos (Teddy)]

I would definitely not buy an M4 with the expectation that this will happen at all. It’s a lovely device though.

We’re working with our internal partners to have support added for the M4 iPad Pro as soon as possible!

[Teddy_Svoronos (Teddy)]

That’s wonderful to hear @AlanZHQ! When you say “support” do you mean making use of the processor’s graphics capabilities or more bug fixes etc.?

[AlanZHQ (Alan)]

In this case I’m referencing the ability to have the Ultra graphics profile enabled for the M4 iPad Pros.

[Teddy_Svoronos (Teddy)]

Amazing news - can’t wait!

[luke_cico (luke)]

Yes, please! That would be amazing.

Just got the 13 inch iPad Pro M4 for other reasons, but have ordered the custom tablet holder for my bike in anticipation of ultra graphics. Have been using an Alienware X17R1 on a pneumatic desk in front of my bike to get that resolution. The tablet screen will be closer than the laptop screen, as won’t be attached to the Magic Keyboard, so perceived screen size shouldn’t be that much smaller.

Any idea when this will be rolled out?

[Joe_Baka (Joe)]

Will this be limited to M4, or will other new M-series iPads, such as M2 Air, support ultra?

[H.Kvtj]

If you use iPadPro, you use HDMI to a big screen or airplay it?
And do you see fullscreen Zwift or just a ipadscreen magnified?

[smoked (David Lurie)]

I haven’t used it for zwift yet, since ultra resolution isn’t available, but plan to use it for the display at that time, without an external monitor, mounted to a tablet holder on the bike.

[Jonathan_White]

You will just see an enlarged version of your iPad, so you will have black bars on the side of your screen. The 13 inch IPad is more than big enough for me, I don’t bother casting it to a tv.

Any update on when Ultra resolution will be available for M4 iPad? thanks!

[Jonathan_White]

Could anyone from Zwift confirm if this is still happening? It’s almost been 3 months since the last update.

[Sylvester_Saracevas (Sylvester)]

I’m wondering the same, I’m about to pull the hook and get a tablet holder for my Zwift Ride, but if Ultra graphics for the M4 isn’t coming, then I might as well continue using my laptop to Zwift.
