Screen size, Viewport, CSS Pixel Ratio

iPad Pro 12 (2021) has a 12.9-inch screen with a screen size (resolution): 1024px × 1366px, 1024px × 1366px viewport¹, and a CSS Pixel Ratio of 2.

Key points for development and testing on iPad Pro 12 (2021)

Before you start web development or testing, check that the web application supports a responsive viewport by using a viewport meta tag: <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width">.
You can inspect this tag in the head section of an HTML document on iPad Pro 12 (2021) right in the Blisk app. If this viewport tag is missing, the web application will not be responsive and will overflow the screen, hiding the content from users and leading to a bad user experience.

The form factor of the device represents its primary orientation as a portrait. Landscape orientation is popular on iPad Pro 12 (2021) as well and should be seriously considered when you develop or test web applications on any mobile.

You also need to consider that the users will manipulate your web application on iPad Pro 12 (2021) with a finger and stylus because this device has a touch screen that supports touch events. It is important to remember, that users may interact with multiple fingers (multi-touch) and gestures: single tap, multi-tap, swipe, pinch, stretch, zoom, etc. The users are highly likely to use gestures on small touch screens because of seamless interaction and great user experience.
