I fail to see a macbook there? What am I missing?
Adam Daniel Jarvis
@mrahmadawais He means any OS X device.

@mrahmadawais the ipad is acting as the touch bar for the Mac in the background

@jarvvski the title is misleading :(

@mrahmadawais @jarvvski It would work for a Macbook, that's just not what he used for the demo.

I am starting to wonder why did they choose "Touch Bar" to be a new hardware, it should have been launched as an app for their IOS devices instead.

@vegardwikeby gets messy when you have to use two device to actually work on one.

it's undoubtedly more convenient to have those "inside" your keyboard, but we have several dozens of users who find it definitely manageable 😉

@criptosays Hi there! Undoubtedly its a great product.(I even tried it once through @producthunt) But somehow I didnt find it useful. Being a programmer, I don't find it convenient. For me its not about features, just a stable way to do things. A phone on desk that's kinda gets slip away when I move my hands etc. So for people like me (or just me) it gets irritating then useable. IRRITATION = 1/PRODUCTIVITY. I might not be one of your target audience, and I really appreciate the innovation @Quadro did. Its a really great piece of technology.

Nice technical demo. Without looking at the code, A sweet idea would be to combine this with Duet Display. @rahulda1 ?
Rahul Dewan
Duet Display
@futhey Definitely had a few people ask about it. But I wonder how many would actually use it (only seems worth it/ergonomic if you are using the iPad as your primary display)

@rahulda1 Understandable, might be wise to hold off until one can be sure the feature takes off :)

stoic.
And all I can think of is Sia singing 'Cheap Thrills' 😌

Love this. I posted an issue on GitHub as feedback - a software Mac keyboard underneath the touch bar would make this a killer app for me; I'd totally control my iMac using my iPad as my only keyboard. For extra credit, Mission Control-style Spaces management and fast switching in the leftover area above the keyboard and touch bar. Hope you make this into more than just a demo app!

Nice! Would it make sense to offer a similar app for iPhones?
