Any idea if it is possible to use an Apple TV 4th Gen remote as a trackpad on an iPad Pro?
Technically it should work as a Bluetooth Trackpad but it is whether Apple allow it to be done or not.
iPad Pro 12.9-inch, 3rd Gen, Wi-Fi
Hello,
Unfortunately this is not possible at this time. You are welcome to share your feedback with Apple, using the following link.
I thought as much. If I thought Apple would allow it if enough people requested it, I would give the feedback, but I know they won’t do it when they can be selling a Magic Mouse or Magic Trackpad instead. Looks like I will be taking the plunge with a Magic Trackpad then 😭
Same reason why an iPod Touch or older non-updatable iPhone such as 1st Gen SE, 6+, etc would make perfect little Trackpads now they cannot be updated any further but still perfectly functional devices otherwise. Seems such a waste of working hardware that is too good to just hand over for “recycling”.
