I have a Logitech K480 bluetooth (native 4.2 - no dongle) keyboard and the Logitech MX Anywhere bluetooth (native 4.2 - not using the dongle) mouse to use with my iPad Air 2 and Android tablets & phones. It's a hoot to be able to use a mouse and a keyboard on my Note 4 phone.

The Keyboard/Mouse works great on all my apps including email, internet, DUATs, etc. on my Android tablets and phones. The keyboard works on my IOS devices (Air 2, S4, and iPod Gen 4). Sadly, the mouse does not. Apple says it was a conscious (????) decision to disable mouse functions on IOS devices.

Great News! The mouse and keyboard works in iFly on my android tablets and phones.

iFly on my iPad seems to be the exception. Is there a switch within IOS version of iFly that I need to turn "on" that will enable iFly to accept the keyboard inputs on my iPad?

Please take a look at this - it would be so helpful to be able to use a keyboard/mouse on my iPad instead of my fat finger and the crappy on-screen keyboard.

Cheers

Using a keyboard and the remote is on our wishlist. It's odd that the Android BT Keyboard works. I'll try and replicate and report this to Brian.
