In this video I break down how I use an iPad for studying in a way that stays true to my minimalist system: simple, repeatable, and actually consistent. The whole point isn’t to turn the iPad into a distraction machine—it’s to use it as a focused study tool that reduces friction. I’m aiming for fewer apps, fewer decisions, and a setup that supports deep work, engineering study sessions, and solid habits. I also tie it back to the bigger picture: your tools only matter if they help you show up every day. So I think about the iPad as part of my overall “study system” alongside planning, reading, and staying intentional with what I consume. If you want to keep things simple and still get real value out of an iPad for school, this is the mindset I use. And if you’re building out your own learning stack, I’ve linked my free reading list of books that helped shape how I think about focus, goals, and doing the basics well.
