And I'd love to make it for iPads too, just struggling to find the optimal UX for enabling and disabling the overlay.

On macOS you can just use the global hotkey or the app menu, on iPad I'd have to wire it up somehow else - supper happy to get ideas on what would feel seamless and unobtrusive for you. I'll definitely implement it then!

What about a control center toggle? Works alright for toggling the windowing system. In general having shortcuts to set it on/off/toggle would be great.

In most EU countries it is very hard to reach a doctor in decent time unless you can afford to pay a lot.

So you can suffer for weeks with an infection and high fever because the pharmacies won't sell you antibiotics because you don't have a paper from a doctor.

Been in Portugal and Austria. Never had this issue, public doctors only.

Bluetooth does not inspire trust, but neither does Apple closed source software; iMessage has failed pretty badly for me, in that it I can’t send a SMS to a previously registered with iMessage phone number.

The poster mentions issues with Notes and Freeform. I use these apps with an Ipad Mini 6, and suffer from freezes, latency, high power draw and crashes. I was previously considering getting a more powerful device like an Ipad Pro, but according to OP this won't fix it at all. Paraphrasing a redditor, the Freeform app seems to have been developed as a demo tool to use in Apple Stores.

In theory, there should be some sort of paid app that uses all the incredible hardware for an actual good experience.
