But the app's description states that it has been optimized for iPad Pro with M1 and M2 chip, and that while it may work with older models there are some limitations with regard to features, and HD resolution support. This is where it gets a little confusing, based on the requirements it should work on iPad 8th gen (2020) and newer devices. My iPad 2017 has an A10X Fusion chipset, and according to the store listing, DaVinci Resolve requires an iPad with an A12 Bionic processor.

Having used the desktop version on Windows and Mac (for basic editing), I wanted to try it on my iPad, but unfortunately the App Store wouldn't let me download it, saying that the app is not compatible with my device. It also supports the Magic Keyboard, Studio and PRO XDR Displays. If you are not a fan of the touch controls, you may use the Apple Pencil to work on your video editing projects in DaVinci Resolve for iPad.

The video editor supports various file formats including Apple ProRES, Blackmagic RAW, H.264, H.265, etc. Users can collaborate on a single project's timeline with the Blackmagic Cloud service, though this is an optional feature. The good news is that the tablet app supports DRP and DRA project files, so you can use it with projects started on the desktop app. The interface of the iPad version looks similar to the DaVinci Resolve desktop app, that's quite convenient if you already know how to use the program.
