iPadOS 16 may be delayed  

It won’t come with iOS 16

Every year, Apple’s newest software releases are all released together in September, but according to Bloomberg , Apple won’t be able to do the same this year with iPadOS 16. The reason is the difficulty that Apple’s developers have encountered with the Stage Manager tool, which will only be available on iPads with M1 chip, which allows them to resize windows and stack them as they want, much like we have windows in Windows. The feature still has bugs and issues in beta.

So as Apple prepares for the release of iOS 16 on iPhones, the schedule is not released for iPadOS 16 and it is likely that we will see it a month later, perhaps together with the release of macOS Ventura in October, since this will have the Stage Manager mode.
