Re: IPadOS 13.4

Just find how the problem occur...

It’s stay connected to wifi until I close the screen...
When I reopen the screen the wifi is not connected and will not connecte itself, I got to go to setting to reconnect it...

I hope a 13.4.1 soon !

All I did to get my Magic Mouse to pair with my 9.7-inch iPad Pro was turn off Bluetooth on the iPad Pro and then turn it back on. After that, I turned on the Magic Mouse. When my iPad detected it, I tapped on it. That was it.

I'm trying to connect just a normal BT Logitech mouse, but I have not idea how to do that. I see that it's simple with a Magic Mouse, but no idea on a 'normal' mouse.

Do how do you like using a mouse with your iPad? any real benefit?

I’ve only been using it since reading your post......It’s actually pretty cool, in my opinion. It’s a breeze with the Tapatalk app and Safari. Scrolling is very fluid. Still, you have to press the home button to get back to your home screens, but overall, I like it.

I have connected multiple BT mice and trackpads to my iPads. LOVE the new functionality. Been using the iPad more like a laptop since 13.4 GM was released. And with the Magic Trackpad 2 its just awesome

I connected my Bluetooth keyboard to my original 9.7-inch iPad Pro along with my Magic Mouse and I’m actually enjoying using the iPad. I also enabled the Assistive Touch option so I don’t have to touch the home button to get back to my home screen. I can use the mouse to select the assistive touch option instead. This is great. The iPad still won’t take the place of my MacBook Pro, but I will be using it a bit more for sure.
