Frequently asked questions about compatibility with the Slim Combo case for iPad 12.9
and 10.5 inch with Smart Connector
1. Can I connect the keyboard to other devices?
No, the Slim Combo keyboards only work with iPad Pro with the Smart Connector.
NOTE: The keyboard case does not have Bluetooth capabilities.
2. Will I be able to put my iPad Pro in the case and close it if my iPad has a tempered screen
protector?
This should not be a problem for the Slim Combo.
The gap between the keyboard and iPad Pro screen is approximately 3mm —this is
enough to fit most screen protectors.
3. I use a charging stand that is also Smart Connector-based. Does the case cover the Smart
Connector pins?
The Slim Combo case has been designed to keep the Smart Connectors accessible, so you
can use it with a Smart Connector charging stand such as the Logitech Base.
4. Is the Slim Combo case keyboard compatible with Apple Silicon case?
The Slim Combo provides both iPad Protection + Stand and typing features. Because the
Apple Silicon case doesn’t provide a stand function, which is needed to set up your iPad
Pro at an angle for typing mode, it won’t work with the keyboard.
Slim Combo Product Information FAQ
Keyboard form factor
1. Does the keyboard still work when not attached to iPad?
The keyboard uses a Smart Connector –a physical connection to iPad. When you detach the
Slim Combo keyboard from your iPad it will disconnect.
2. Does the keyboard fold back 360 degrees around to lay flat against the iPad?
No, it doesn’t. If you don't need the keyboard, you can simply detach and store it elsewhere.
There are still three available modes you can use with your iPad Pro:
Reading mode
Viewing mode
Facetime mode
3. Can the iPad attach to the keyboard without the case?
Yes, the keyboard attaches directly to iPad via Smart Connector. You would require a case part
though to prop the iPad at a typing angle.
4. Can I buy just the keyboard without the case?
No, Slim Combo is a full solution, consisting of a case and keyboard —they are only sold
together.

5. Will the keyboard scratch the screen?
No, it will not the Slim Combo has been designed to ensure screen safety:
When closed, there is 3 mm gap between keyboard and iPad to prevent contact
There are rubber paddings between keyboard and case to prevent direct contact of the
keyboard with the screen
Keyboard material –we are using only safe materials in keyboard design –no aluminum
or metal or other materials hard enough to cause damage
Keys
1. Are all the keys on the Slim Combo keyboard capable of backlighting?

seconds then fade away. You can adjust the level of backlighting afterwards using the
backlighting shortcut keys on the top row of keys.

2. Open the kickstand on the holder, then set your iPad Pro at a comfortable angle. Adjust if
needed.
3. Attach the keyboard, aligning the three connector pins on the keyboard with the three
connector ports on the side of the iPad Pro.
NOTE: Make sure your iOS is up to date (and always stays up to date) —this is
important for Smart Connector, which transfers both power and data between iPad and
the keyboard.

4. For iPad Pro 12.9 inch, you can fold the keyboard palm rest under for a more compact
footprint.
To remove your iPad, remove the iPad from the holder by bending one of the two corners of the
case on the side where the Smart Connector is, shown in Step 3 above.
Connect and pair the Logitech Slim Combo keyboard to an iPad

Bluetooth in order to pair.
Here’s how to connect your Slim Combo keyboard:
1. Align the three Smart Connector pins on your keyboard with the three Smart Connector
pins on the right side of your iPad Pro. Magnets will help to guide the pins of the
keyboard to make alignment easier.
2. After you’ve aligned the Smart Connector pins, you’re connected and ready to type.
