Version 3

NovaPad OS Pro

A tablet that thinks it's a workstation.

NovaPad OS Pro is built for the FlowTab Pro — it keeps the touch-first soul of NovaPad OS and adds true desktop-class apps, windowed multitasking and the toolchains technical students actually need.

Features & functionalities

Built around how you use it.

Full desktop-class windowing with resizable apps

Native IDE: code editor, terminal and Git client

Engineering & CAD apps with FlowPen Pro precision

LaTeX, Jupyter notebooks and scientific calculator suite

Virtual machines and Linux containers on-device

External display support up to 8K via Thunderbolt 5

Studio-grade color management for design work

Pro file system with tags, versions and snapshots

Why it matters

Made for technical students.

Code, render, simulate and write — every tool a STEM workflow asks for, on a device that still fits in a backpack.

Why it matters

Real apps, real windows.

Resize, snap and stack like a desktop. Touch when you want, keyboard and trackpad when you mean it.

Why it matters

Power without the heat.

Tuned for the M2 Max chip and the FlowTab Pro's vapor-chamber cooling — sustained work, no throttling.

Software specifications

Under the hood.

Every layer of NovaPad OS Pro — from the kernel to the AI engine — engineered to feel calm, fast and quietly precise.
