I have an iPad 6th generation. After the latest update 17.7.7 I’ve been having problems with certain, but not all apps. Wikipedia, Duck Duck Go, Letterboxd...

Understanding the Context

I just got a 6th Generation iPad mini and I'm looking to get a screen protector for it. Normally, I'd just get whatever Zagg Glass InvisibleShield is out.

The new USB-C 3.0 port offers twice the data transfer speed of the sixth-generation iPad mini, making it a meaningful upgrade for users who frequently transfer large files between devices. I can confirm the magnets are the same.

I received the new smart folio for iPad 7th gen and it works on my 6th gen mini. Also I reached out to apple and they confirmed that the cases that worked with 6th gen would work with the 7th gen. I would alap assume (and hope) all third party cases work as the dimensions between both gens are identical.
