Hi everyone, I need a bit of advice, please.
My GF wants Santa (that’s me) to bring her a keyboard for her iPad
I’m not to sure whether it makes any difference or not but it is a pretty old iPad - iPad Air 2 and I know Apple have the habit of not making things simple for the consumer
Any recommendations and what kind of keyboard should I be looking for. A word or two on a suitable mouse would be very helpful
As always many thanks
Kevin

You can't use a mouse on the iPad as it has no cursor. All the compatible iPad keybaords don't have a touchpad either.
There are several models available on Amazon, the best ones seem to be made by Arteck, Logitech or Inateck. You would need a Bluetooth one as there are no inbuilt connection terminals on an iPad Air 2 like there are on later models.Retired at age 56 after having "light bulb moment" due to reading MSE and its forums.
