Answer 1

While magnets can harm the old style of disc drives, iPads, smart phones, etc. rely on flash memory that is not affected, and thus use of magnets is safe. Even when the old style spinning disc drives were in use, they can be shielded to protect them from magnets, ie. MacBooks with MagSafe cord connections.
