Expert opinion

I recently tried out the IOGEAR KeyMander 2 Mobile Keyboard/Mouse Adapter, and I m very impressed by its features and performance. The product is designed to help you use a keyboard and mouse in place of your fingers or controller on iPad/iPhone/Apple TV. It supports iOS Remote Play with PS4 and Xbox One, as well as a variety of apps for email, messaging, drawing, etc.

In addition, the KeyMander 2 also allows you to play FPS First Person Shooter and TPS Third Person Shooter games like Fortnite and Call of Duty Mobile with increased speed and accuracy. This is thanks to its support for both Keyboard/Mouse mode and Controller mode. Moreover, the K2 Mobile iOS app provides further configuration for custom key mapping, mouse sensitivity, macro functions, and more plus you can download and share game profiles from the K2 Mobile App.

I have to say that I was really impressed by how easy it was to set up the KeyMander 2. All I had to do was connect one cable from my iPad or iPhone to the KeyMander 2 unit, then another cable from the unit into my TV or monitor. The entire setup process was incredibly simple no need for any complicated instructions or adapters just plug and play!

In terms of performance, I found that the KeyMander 2 works great with over 1000 mobile and cloud based games from Apple Arcade, Google Stadia, and Google Play Games coming in May 2021 NOTE: however mobile game MUST support Bluetooth controller connection games without controller support like PUBG are not compatible . I tested it out with some of my favorite games like Fortnite and Call of Duty Mobile, and I found that using a keyboard/mouse combo drastically improved my performance compared to using just a gamepad or touchscreen controls.

Overall, I am very pleased with the KeyMander 2 Mobile Keyboard/Mouse Adapter from IOGEAR. It s an incredibly convenient product that helps improve your gaming experience on iPad/iPhone/Apple TV devices by allowing you to use a keyboard/mouse combo instead of just relying on touchscreen controls or gamepads. With its easy setup process and great performance with many different types of games, this is definitely an excellent choice if you re looking for something to improve your gaming experience on your iOS device. Highly recommended!
