Horizon Client supports the iPad Keyboard Dock and Apple Wireless Keyboard (Bluetooth) external
keyboards. Horizon Client supports Apple Pencil as a pointer device on iPad Pro and the Swiftpoint GT
mouse on any iOS device that the Swiftpoint GT mouse supports.
Using an External Keyboard
Horizon Client automatically detects the iPad Keyboard Dock external keyboard. To use the Apple Wireless
Keyboard (Bluetooth) with a remote desktop or application, you must rst pair the keyboard with the client

split keyboard mode when you aempt to make the iPad detect the Bluetooth keyboard. To make the client
device detect the wireless keyboard, tap the screen with three ngers at the same time, or tap the Keyboard
buon in the Horizon Client Tools.
