The keyboard is absolutely great! It feels nice, great quality and is overall a high quality keyboard.
The App on the other hand, is absolute garbage. I am currently typing this on the keyboard on my iPad, yet the App is unable to recognize the keyboard exists. Ive installed 3-4 times, power cycled and re connected multiple times, but the App is still dead weight.
needs ios16 update - shift key doesnt work
for whatever reeason the shift key doesnt work
Very disappointed
It worked very well at first now i am having problems with the trackpad and my power Bluetooth and cap lock keys lighting up my trackpad doesn’t work even after trouble shooting and also updating through the app
Great App and Hardware Experience!
Not gonna lie… I was prepared to be underwhelmed by this after reading a few of the older reviews. But since purchasing the Brydge Max+ for my 11” 2018 iPad Pro in August 2022, I’m happy to report that both the keyboard and the app have knocked my socks off!
The app is as no frills as they come, but the update process was straightforward and uncomplicated – worked like a charm, and I was using my new keyboard within minutes of unpacking it from the box.
There were a couple of things to fine tune, at first, but I haven’t experienced any major glitches which is a testament to the developers’ ongoing work, here. The keyboard and trackpad themselves are rock solid, and I’m really looking forward to putting them through their paces with iPadOS 16 this Fall.
If you’re reading this, and you’re on the fence about whether to buy this vs the Magic Keyboard (or any of the MANY other keyboard solutions for the iPad Pro/Air), my sincere advice is to give it a shot. I’ve found the user experience to be far superior to Apple’s own hardware, and it’s more completely transformed the iPad into a true productivity workhorse.
Great keyboard - substandard software.
I have had several keyboards and went away from the trackpad version because of battery life.
I have the newest Max+ and love the additional iPad protection now.
The Brydge software updater is really unreliable and causes way more frustration than usefulness. Love the keyboard - get better software.
Aaarrrgh
Downloaded this app, didn’t work, and now the keyboard won’t connect no matter what i try. @#$%&!!! DONT DOWNLOAD THIS APP!!!!
Will never update
App, using a new iPad, will never update. Have loaded multiple times but update won’t work.
Very nice
I have this app since the Brydge Pro+ and it has worked so well to give all the Multi Touch Gestures. Now I have the Brydge Max+ both 11 inch for my iPad Air and the Brydge Max+ for the 12.9 M1 iPad Pro can not be happier with the keyboard case and the Brydge Connect app.
Not an out of the box kind of device.
Cannot get any connection between your App and my device. Simply will not even recognize my IPAD. I can type with it, but the keypad..nope, the updates, nope, the curser, nope. I had a Brydge years ago and should have remembered.
Unable to reconnect
Updated the keyboard and followed the directions. Bluetooth says it’s connected, however it quit working. Reinstalled the app and it keeps saying failed to connect. Advice please.
