Actually a feature almost no one mentioned, should make more of this instead of those obvious and duplicate ones.

That's pretty cool. Since I don't have a mac, i didn't realize you needed a mouse to use this feature. I didn't spend too much time touching the corners trying to get the actions to work before figuring out you need a mouse. Cool feature though if you're into using a mouse on an ipad.

Why does Apple hide these useful features? Bring them out front and center in the settings.

I have had Assistive Touch set up with all these options forever. Which is ideal for me as i rarely use the ipad more than a freestanding tablet. But if i used it more as a static device, them this is handy.

Nice! I set mine up almost the same way.

Hi. Thanks for this. I’ve got my mouse working & have a few questions...

Are we’re able to invert the mouse scrolling directions?

Also, i’d love to assign Back/Forward commands to the 4th & 5th mouse buttons (especially for Browser use). Is this possible?

& are the custom mouse gestures able to trigger a command like ‘Refresh’ in Safari?

Not gonna lie I thought the iPad Pro just got the same issues that the iPad Pro 10.5 had do you know the way getting spots

Was wondering what it is for. Great time to move to ios ecosystem with ability to have desktop browser on ipados with additional remote access to mac.

Do you have a video on changing the pointer style? I was looking earlier and couldn’t find it. I’m still very new to apple.. have my first iPhone, MacBook Pro and now iPad for my new shop — OVERWHELMED! Lol

[man-bagdammit]

Thank you for making a video about this. I didnt realize they added this in 13.3 until i saw this video! Great feature!!!!

[JaAlex]

Does it only work with a mouse? I have the magic keyboard and it’s not working.

[jopijohannes]

Hey, can you please send a link to the wallpaper you have in the start of the video at 0:09?

The iPad is officially 10 years ahead of any other Tablets int he market currently

[rayngrace]

Been out of the loop. Has there been a fix for the iPad2 that got ruined by the update just to save battery life? Thanks

[Ded-Ede]

Hmmm cool. Does it work with Apple Pencil 2????

[Kenfitzpat]

Ive watched this twice and I’m not sure this will work with the built in track pad.?

[erikleypoldt]

Why is the pointer a hideous circle and not a normal arrow?

[hamzah]

I can’t connect my Apple Magic Mouse to IpadOS 13.3

On the road that ipad aims to replace laptop, you still cannot develop an app for iPad on an iPad

[zannajoyce]

Does the hot corner feature work with a track pad? I really dislike having to go into the dock or Home Screen every time I want to change apps I am using. I just want to see everything open so I can click on the playing card view. If there is a shortcut key set for that, could someone please post it? (Running latest 14 version on iPad Pro)
