    Don’t buy any of the suggested mice on the Jump site unless you don’t plan on using AssistiveTouch with a mouse on your IPad.  I ended up returning my Propoint (Swift Point) mouse because I got tired of turning the mouse off and on again (or the AssistiveTouch off and on again) to get the circle iPad pointer to move again after exiting the Jump app on my remote connections.  I went instead with the Hyper Drive 6-IN-1 Hub and my standard Costco Logitech mouse with blue tooth USB plugged into the 6-IN-1 Hub.  Works flawlessly in both the Jump app and on my iPad Pro (I have a 12.9 running IOS 13.1.2) with AssistiveTouch turned on and I no longer have to turn anything off and on again.  I did loose the “arrow” pointer in the jump app that I had with the Propoint mouse but no big deal.  I set my iPad circle pointer to its smallest setting and selected the grey color.   If you go this route in the jump app you would need to pull down the menu on the top of the screen and click on the wrench setting icon and turn off the “show pointer” which is Jump’s default touch pointer otherwise its in the way and follows the circle iPad circle pointer    You don’t need Jump’s built in touch arrow if you are using a standard mouse with the mouse’s blue tooth USB plugged into the USB on the Hyper Drive 6-N-1 hub.   I sent a message to the Jump folks to add the Hyper Drive 6-IN-1 Hub as another alternative for using a periphery mouse with their app which is really limitless as any blue tooth mouse will work that has a USB blue tooth dongle. Here’s the link for more info:

    PS.  How do you like the Brydrge keyboard for your iPad Pro 11?   I have the Apple keyboard case for my 12.9 pro.  There are some things I don’t like about it and have been eying the Brydrge keyboard case.  The only issue I may have is my 6-IN-1 Hub might have to be modified to use the accessory cable instead of the clip on hub which works with my Apple keyboard case without using the extra cable where the hub would then dangle on the outside of the Brydrge case.

    @4HisGlory sounds good, but how "right klick" works?

    @Carl Na hold down your index finger on the mouse for right click, same as you would do when using in your iPad Pro. Unfortunately there is no mouse setting for right clicking in IOS 13.1.2.   Maybe in the future...

    @4HisGlory, @Carl Na

     

    It's possible to set up right click in accessibility settings in iOS. Just assign long tap to right mouse button.

    I don't get why scrolling is not supported by the app. I can scroll through the entire desktop window when zoomed in. But can't scroll through the content in remote session? That's a BS.
