Mine stopped working in the middle of use a few days ago. It’s definitely none of the issues identified in article. I’ve restarted several time and even reset the entire iPad. Still not recognizing keyboard (says it is not a recognized accessory).


this is an issue that seems to have been identified in the beta version.


there is literally no helpful documentation anywhere online.
