Compatibility
This Magic Keyboard is designed for universal usage and is compatible with any Bluetooth-enabled device. While it offers the most seamless integration and full functionality with Apple devices running macOS, iOS, and iPadOS, it can also be paired with Windows PCs, Android devices, and other operating systems that support Bluetooth keyboards. Note that some special function keys (e.g., specific media controls or brightness keys) may behave differently or require custom mapping on non-Apple operating systems.
Care
- Cleaning: To clean the keyboard, first turn it off. Use a soft, lint-free cloth lightly dampened with water. Avoid getting moisture into any openings. Do not use aerosol sprays, solvents, or abrasives.
- Charging: Recharge the keyboard when the battery indicator light flashes or your device notifies you of low battery. Connect it using the supplied cable. You can generally continue using the keyboard while it charges.
- Storage: When not in use for extended periods, it's advisable to turn off the keyboard to conserve battery life.
