How hard could that be? You did point out that its easy to do.
Did I? — Where exactly?
Heck, I’d love a proper slicer on the iPad.
There you go. That’s all you had to say.

Now now, you kids settle down or I’ll have to separate you, don’t make me send you both to the principals office!
I would also like to put in my vote for a native iPad slicer. I will look in to how hard it would be to fork Orca Slicer and build it for iPad, check back here in a couple days for a status update.

There’s a LOT of complicated math/algebra in a slicer, not exactly what I’d call “light reading” and certainly not for amateurs

He knows. He was being sarcastic.
With that said, if it can be compiled for a Mac, it can be ported to iOS with a reasonable amount of effort. Certainly lots of crossover between Bambu’s target market, and Apple users.
I never said it was easy though.

Let’s not blame the target of the bullying (me) just because I wasn’t successfully bullied, and chose to leave my comments up for transparency. This isn’t a great way to deal with children either. People should be free to defend themselves from unwarranted and baseless character attacks.
With that said, I didn’t come here to fight with anyone. I just came to say I really would love an iPad slicer, and if any company out there wants to appeal to the “It just works” market — it’s Bambu — so I’m pleading 
Please and thank you.
Just trying to keep this thread alive. Bambu studio for iPad would be great.
I may try and take a crack at a port of the Mac version, latest dev environment makes it pretty easy for the core. The UI will take a lot of work.

Didn’t you know? - if you eat apples, all tablets are iPads…
I think for an out of the box printer like the X1C, an iOS slicer is mandatory. Apple fanboys are lazy and want smooth workflows. For this reason I work mostly with Shapr3D, because Shapr3D runs on the iPad.
I have license for SolidWorks, Inventor, Fusion360 and Shapr3D. SolidWorks and Inventor are powerful but running only under Windows, Fusion 360 is only a pain -.-
For real mobile workflows, please introduce Bambu Lab Studio for iPad

By the way this opens the door for an additional business case. Some $ from the AppStore + maybe some additional fees like cloud storage for CAD and Printer projects and so on
It’s not always a case of being lazy, I am disabled and my printer in under the stairs in the hallway, if I need to fix something I have to keep moving between my main livingroom and hallway, whereas if I could slice and alter things on my iPad or Android tablet I could do most this in situ beside the printer
It looks like Bambu Handy is iPad native now.
Besides what everyone else has said, things like the ease of use, going straight from Shapr3d on the iPad to an iPad version of Studio, etc., I think there is a real new advantage to consider. With this new announcement of “Colorful 3D Printing for everyone,” that will bring a lot of new users to Bambu Studio. More users, more feedback, more ideas, better software.
In that same way, considering that, as far as I can see, Pikaslice is the ONLY iOS/iPadOS slicer. Shouldn’t Bambu lead the way and port Studio over? And I know more and more people who don’t even own a computer anymore because iPads have gotten so much better. Let’s not leave them out of this Brave New Bambu World!

Another vote for a native iPad (Pro) Bambu Studio app with Apple Pencil support.
Why not making this idea a kickstarter project ?
I would definitely participate.
