Logitech has introduced an iPadOS app called Logitech Control that lets you update the firmware and gives. You can find this app in the App Store and download it directly onto your iPad. We recommend you install this to keep up-to-date on firmware for your device.

During firmware updates, it’s important that you do not use the keyboard or touchpad during the process, making sure that the keyboard stays connected, and that the app is open. The best way to accomplish this is to place the device into “typing mode” on a flat surface where there is no risk that the keyboard could become disconnected.

If the keyboard disconnects or the app is closed while you are applying a firmware update, the update may not complete and some functionality of your device may be lost. If this happens, you can force the firmware update by using the following steps:

1. Open Logitech Control App — make sure you’re using the newest version available in the App Store.
2. On the screen, using the image of the keyboard within the app, place your fingers on the Q+W+E buttons (as highlighted in the image below), and then touch or press the Globe key on the image of the keyboard (also highlighted in the image below).

3. You will see the text below the Logi logo change to Unlocking Firmware Update when successful.

4. After “Unlocking Firmware Update” appears, tap the grayed-out FIRMWARE UPDATE AVAILABLE button.
5. The New Firmware window appears — tap Start Update to restart the firmware update.

NOTE: Remember to keep the keyboard attached, the app open, and refrain from using the keyboard or touchpad during the process.

To enjoy the automatic adjustable backlighting feature and full backlight control features, you will need to update to iPadOS 13.6 or above.
You can adjust the backlighting of your keyboard from 0% to 100% by 16 different levels.
– To increase the backlighting, press the Backlighting Level Up key
– To decrease the backlighting, press the Backlighting Level Down key

Additionally, you can update the keyboard firmware in the Logitech Control app. You can download the app here, the app logo below, or scan the QR code with your iPad.

If your cursor is jumpy when you use the Combo Touch Keyboard trackpad, please try the following:

– Make sure that only one part of your finger is touching the surface and that you’re not resting your wrist on or very close to the surface. The touch surface might interpret this as your finger touching it and move the pointer in that direction.
– Keep the surface dry and clean:

– To clean the keyboard and trackpad, wipe with a lint-free cloth dampened in water.
– Don’t apply liquids directly on the keyboard/iPad.
– If the spine or the smart connector of the keyboard/iPad gets dirty or stained, apply a small amount of rubbing alcohol to a soft, lint-free cloth to clean.

Combo Touch combines a precision trackpad with a full-size keyboard for your iPad.

Our Verdict
The Combo Touch also has several features the Folio Touch lacks, including a kickstand, a slightly larger trackpad, and a keyboard that’s detachable from its case.

Excellent keyboard and touchpad. Drains battery even when locked.

Logitech May have intended for this to work with just the 5th Gen iPad Pro, but it does work retroactively with the 3rd and 4th Gen versions. I hope this helps you and provides an actual answer to your question.

A slightly damp cleaning cloth or soft, dust-free cloth works best to remove fingerprints. Dust in hard-to-reach places is best removed with compressed air.

The Logitech Combo Touch has a weight of 610 g.

The Logitech Combo Touch keyboard links to your iPad via Apple’s Smart Connector. This means you’ll have an adequately reliable connection and won’t require Bluetooth. Plus, you won’t have to worry about the charging case as well.

Just quickly hold down commands. And then click on v. And then once you have pasted of course you can release the command key as well. And then of course we go like.

Go to “Settings” then to “General” and to “Keyboard”
Choose “Hardware Keyboard”
Slide the ‘Keyboard Brightness’ slider all the way to the right or somewhere in between to enable the backlit keyboard.

If you want to right-click on your iPad, all you need to do is press one finger on the screen and hold it there for a second or two (unmoving). This gesture opens the contextual menu for whatever application you’re using. However, there’s one aspect to understand about right-clicking on the iPad: It’s app contextual.

Insert your iPad in the iPad holder. Close the keyboard folio: Logitech Type + Status light indicators Your keyboard folio’s status light provides information about the battery power and Bluetooth connection: Light Description Blinking green The battery is charging.

Use the charging cable included with your keyboard. Plug the small end into the charging port on the back of the device, then plug the other end into the charger or your computer. If you don’t have the original charger, you can use any micro-USB connector.
