I have an iPad and iPhone, and have successfully paired them to use my iPhone as a remote control for a Keynote presentation on the iPad. Good.
However, is there a way to use a run-of-the-mill $20 remote as a remote? Use that instead of the iPhone.
In short, if I preferred to use a generic remote to control a Keynote presentation on iPad, is that possible?
Thanks.
iPad Air (4th generation)
iPad and iPhone can connect to Bluetooth or wi-fi remote controls
BlueTooth remotes do not use a USB dongle
When using a wi-fi remote for that specific iPad, you will need the Apple USB-C to USB adapter to connect the USB receiver to the iPad.

I have a generic remote and multi adaptor that I connected to the iPad. It cause lights to blink on the iPad, but no slide movement. From that, I construe it can only be an Apple adaptor?
It must be the Apple adapter that I gave the link to in my previous post.
Many thanks.
