FAQs
Is this folio compatible with the 3rd generation 11-inch iPad Pro?
No, this Smart Folio is specifically designed for the 1st and 2nd generation 11-inch iPad Pro models. It is not compatible with later generations.
Does the Smart Folio offer significant drop protection?
The Smart Folio provides good protection against everyday scratches and minor bumps. However, it is not designed for heavy-duty drop protection and does not offer the same level of impact resistance as rugged cases.
How do I clean the white polyurethane material?
You can clean the exterior with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they may damage the material. Always ensure the folio is dry before reattaching it to your iPad.
Can I charge my Apple Pencil while using this folio?
Yes, the Smart Folio is designed to allow magnetic pairing and charging of the Apple Pencil (2nd generation) to the side of the iPad Pro when the folio is open or folded back.
Does the folio have a built-in battery?
No, the Smart Folio does not have a built-in battery. Its wake/sleep function is triggered by magnets interacting with your iPad Pro's sensors.
What are the dimensions of the Smart Folio?
The dimensions are approximately 10 x 7.3 x 0.6 inches (L x W x H).
Is the magnetic closure strong enough to keep the iPad secure?
The magnetic closure is designed to keep the front cover securely in place during normal use and transport, protecting the screen. It is not intended as a primary security lock against accidental openings in a bag.
Troubleshooting
iPad does not wake or sleep when opening/closing the folio.
Ensure the folio is correctly attached and the magnets are aligned. Try cleaning the magnetic contacts on both the folio and the iPad. Restart your iPad. If the issue persists, check your iPad's 'AssistiveTouch' settings under Accessibility, as some customizations can affect sleep/wake behavior.
Folio stand is unstable or won't hold position.
Ensure the folio is folded correctly into one of the designated stand positions. Check for any debris or damage on the folding creases that might affect its stability. Ensure the iPad is placed on a flat, stable surface.
Scratches or marks on the polyurethane material.
Minor scuffs can sometimes be gently wiped away with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. For deeper marks, use a slightly damp cloth and allow to air dry completely. Avoid using cleaning solvents.
