Pairing your Apple iPhone with the new Apple Wireless keyboard (via bluetooth)....

I have all of the technology pictured here (i.e., an iPhone with bluetooth, the Apple bluetooth wireless keyboard, a hand and a desk...) However, what I don't have is the ability to pair the Apple wireless keyboard with the Apple iPhone! Heck I wish there was some smart programmer out there who would design an app to allow me to link these two Apple devices. This would make my iPhone infinitely more useful!

Pairing Apple's Wireless Keyboard With the iPhone


AppleInsider has a thorough review of Apple's Wireless keyboard. Toward the end of the review, the reviewer comes up with a brilliant request for Apple,

"One feature I'd like to see added requires new software support on the iPhone: the ability to pair the phone to the Bluetooth keyboard. Imagine using the duo (below) as a hyper thin traveling companion for taping out notes.
That, my friend, is a genius idea, especially if they create an attachment to perch the iPhone as shown. Make it happen Apple.


In the meantime I use my wireless keyboard with my iMac and my Sony Vaio UX 180P (a perfect pair with seamless connection every time!)

  • I've requested this exact feature on the iPhone's feedback forum at apple.com and I've done it 2 times. I suppose I may have to resort to making the request at least once per quarter if the capability isn't added in the next firmware update and initial rollout of 3rd party apps.
