Since this is a Bluetooth keyboard, it does not connect to the Smart Connector like the Magic Keyboard, which is not as convenient because it does need to be charged at times. You're not going to feel a lot of difference with this trackpad and the trackpad on the Magic Keyboard. You can tap anywhere on the trackpad (and click in most areas minus the edges), and it's a major improvement over the trackpad on Brydge keyboards that we tested last year. The trackpad works well, and there are no dead zones. The trackpad is huge, much larger than the trackpad on the Magic Keyboard and comparable to the trackpad on the MacBook Pro. There's a row of shortcut keys above the number row for controlling screen brightness, accessing media controls and emoji, and more. The keys, which are arguably one of the most important aspects of any keyboard, feel great under the fingers and have a good amount of travel. The Brydge 12.9 MAX+ is a keyboard case that connects to the back of the iPad Pro magnetically similar to the Magic Keyboard, but it does not have the same elevated angling, instead using a flatter, more typical laptop design.
#MAC COMPATIBLE KEYBOARD WITH TRACKPAD FULL#
Like the Magic Keyboard, it offers a full keyboard and a trackpad that's compatible with the iPad Pro models, turning an iPad touch experience into a more laptop-like experience. Shipping out in June, the Brydge 12.9 MAX+ is priced at $250, which is quite expensive, but it is a full $100 cheaper than Apple's Magic Keyboard for the 12.9-inch iPad Pro. Note that we have a preproduction unit and haven't had a lot of time with it, so is more of an overview than an in-depth review. In our latest YouTube video, we checked out the new Brydge 12.9 MAX+ to see if it's a viable alternative to Apple's own Magic Keyboard. Hope this helps, post a comment if it works or experienced other issues.Subscribe to the MacRumors YouTube channel for more videos. When reconnecting pairing and connecting is run (unpair in beginning just in case) When disconnecting from currently connected device unpairing is done to avoid reconnect back and connection issues with other device.
P.S the script sometimes hangs when trying to connect, in such case I turn off and back on the keyboard and run againĮxplanation: first it is checked if we are connected, if we are we disconnect and if not reconnect. Now, whenever you want to switch between devices run the script first on the device currently connected to keyboard and then run on the other device and viola! keyboard now connected to other device.

Copy script to second device, make sure to update the blueutil_folder correctly.

Enter script (notice my shell is zsh, so if yours is different either install it or update command to fit your shell, such as 'if' statement of parenthesis):.In automator Create new automation of type 'Application'.Run blueutil -pared and idnetify device address, this is the device id used below, just substitute '-' with ':' (e.g 40:e6:4b:8d:52:12).Install blue util (can be done via 'bower install blueutil').This works by installing blueutil and creating an identical automator script on both devices: Well, after much playing around I was able to find something that is pretty close. If the device doesn’t support it, you’ll need to pair and unpair it each time.
#MAC COMPATIBLE KEYBOARD WITH TRACKPAD SOFTWARE#
There’s no software that is going to your initiate your Bluetooth devices to switch from one device to another - you can only imagine the security implications!īottom line, to easily switch between devices without complex the re-pairing as you describe, you need devices that support multiple pairings. There are many other brands (Bose, Apple AirPods, Sony, etc.) that have this functionality. Sennheiser headphones (my personal choice) can pair with up to 8 devices total and with 2 simultaneously. However, products like the Logitech MX series as well as the K380 (typing on it right now) can pair with up to 3 devices and switch with the press of a button. The Magic Keyboard, Mouse, and Trackpad are designed to be paired with a single computer (they make no reference to multiple device pairings). You purchase Bluetooth devices (keyboard, mouse, headset, etc.) that have multiple device support. I would like to seamlessly switch my Bluetooth devices (headphones, magic keyboard, touch pad) between work / personal Macs without complex repairing.
