fmp17 What iPad will you recommend?

[Tondats]

Hello guys, good evening.

I'm developing a solution right now. I just need you opinion and expertise. What iPad will you recommend that can run my app faster?

Do you think iPad Mini 4 can handle an app for a Filemaker app?

Thanks!

Morning

The iPad mini 4 is similar in speed to the iPad Air 2. The iPad Air 2 was replaced by the full-sized (9.7") iPad (5th Gen) and more recently by the iPad (6th Gen).

So while the mini 4 is a fine device, you would be much better served by the cheaper and faster iPad (6th Gen).

 

I would suggest testing your app with a mini 4 if you want to use a small form factor device, and see how it goes!

Hello rwoods, good afternoon.

Thanks for replying rwoods. I got an iPad Mini (1st Generation) and iPad 2. My solution run so well but the problem is when it comes to computation it took 3 to 5 seconds before it displays the result. 

The script was attached in the Script Trigger of the Present Reading field. I attached it in the OnObjectSave Script Trigger. My guess is that maybe the Script Trigger slows the computation. What I mean is, if I use the Script Trigger is that the reason the computation took 3 to 5 seconds before it displays the result? or it is because of my iPads poor memory and processor?
