First, make sure that your keyboard is not paired with any other device. You can do this by going into the system preferences or system settings of your computer and disabling it. Once you’ve done that, you’re ready to connect your keyboard to your iOS device.

If you have an iPhone, iPad, iPad Mini, or iPod Touch, open up the settings application on your device and go to the Bluetooth section. If Bluetooth is off, swipe it on. Wait for your device to discover the keyboard. If it doesn’t find it, press the power button on the side of the keyboard to turn it on. Once it’s found, enter the code that pops up and hit the enter/return button to connect it. You can now use your keyboard with your device.

To connect your keyboard to your Nexus 7 tablet or other Bluetooth-enabled device, follow the same process. Make sure your keyboard is unpaired with any other device, go to the Bluetooth section in settings, turn on Bluetooth, and wait for the device to find your keyboard. Enter the code that pops up and hit the enter/return button to connect it. Now you can use your keyboard with your tablet.
