Microsoft Designer Bluetooth Desktop keyboard and mouse

Are there any users of this keyboard here?


Does it work with iPad?


I'm trying to connect it to iPad 6 with iPadOS 14.

The mouse works fine, but the keyboard pairs properly,

but does not work in any applications.

The on-screen keyboard is still shown.


No problems on Android on Windows.

It works just fine there.


Any advices?

Hello Pola2323,


We understand that you are having issues using a Bluetooth keyboard with your iPad. We’d like to help however we can. 


Firstly, follow the steps outlined here:

If you need further assistance after reviewing that resource, then we would recommend reaching out to the manufacturer of the keyboard to check its compatibility with your iPad and get the best assistance going forward.
