M4 iPad Pro Magic Keyboard randomly stops working

I was wondering if anyone else has been having issues with the Magic Keyboard in combination with the M4 iPad Pro.


Mine randomly stops working intermittently, the function keys still work but I can’t type anything in any app that allows text input.


This has already happened three times in the three days I’ve owned these devices and the only thing that seems to solve it is a full reboot.


This is frankly unacceptable for what these devices cost.

iPad Pro, iPadOS 17

I am having the same problem. Restarting my iPad seems to be the fix, but I would rather not have to deal with this. This has happened both when I am connected to an external keyboard, mouse, and monitor, and it has also happened when I am not connected to anything but the Magic Keyboard.
