Even with up to 16 GB of RAM, iPad Pro still only allows apps to use up to 5 GB of RAM.
Although iPad Pros running Apple’s M1 chip have 8 GB and 16 GB of RAM, app developers are required to limit RAM consumption to 5 GB even though they are designing apps for the new version. Which iPad Pro version?

Accordingly, the application can only use up to 5 GB of RAM on the latest iPad. According to the developers, trying to use more than this amount of space causes the application to crash.

After testing the pressure tests on an iPad Pro M1 with 16 GB of RAM, it turned out that the application could only use 5 GB of RAM or less. If used more, the application will crash. This limit is only 0.5 GB more RAM than the old iPads that only had 6 GB of RAM,” the programmer shared.

However, overall, with the increased amount of RAM, you can still open more applications to run in the background at the same time because iPadOS itself is not limited to the amount of RAM used.

Here, iPadOS 15 will certainly be introduced as well. Bloomberg previously said that iPadOS 15 will bring a completely redesigned Home screen.
