Immediately after the presentation of iPadOS and iOS 13, many users began to imagine a much more productive and close to that of a real PC. A self-respecting computer, however, certainly needs connected hardware peripherals. We are obviously talking about mouse and keyboard, whether they are Bluetooth or wired. In this guide we will therefore connect the aforementioned accessories to Apple mobile devices.
Connection via Bluetooth
By now we know: the future is wireless! For this reason, many of you will already have wireless and technology-enabled peripherals Bluetooth. Mouse and keyboard, however, pair with iPhone and iPad in a different way, while maintaining the same procedures on both devices.

- Continue with “Bluetooth"(And activate it)
- Turn on the keyboard and prune it when connecting (varies by model)

Connect Bluetooth mouse (only with iOS 13 and iPadOS)

Connection via cable
To connect a wired mouse and keyboard to your iPhone or iPad, you need to purchase an adapter OTG capable of transforming the Lightning or USB-C port of the two Apple devices into a standard USB. There are hundreds of them on the market, including those of “meloaudio” e “AUKEY”.

Once a keyboard is connected to the adapter, everything will work automatically, while for the mouse (only with iOS 13 and iPadOS) it will be necessary to proceed once again from the "Accessibility", "Touch", "AssistiveTouch" e "Devices".
