iPad Cases only stand in one direction?

2024-09-25 00:00

This have been a big annoyance of me for a really long time at this point. Most iPad cases, if they at all let you use them as a kick stand, only support doing so in one direction.

That is fine that each model only support on orientation, and it makes sense.

However.

Why the fuck is all of them design for doing so in landscape? Most of the time (but not always) when I don’t have my iPad attached to a keyboard I’d prefer the other way. Having a tall display close to my wider laptop or external display is a lot more useful than another wide one.

For example with a list of tasks, a web page, pdf, e-book or something like that visible.
