### 1/5 — Broken

*2026-05-31*

Does not work. Unable to get driver enabled in iOS 26, which means cannot use stream deck.

### 1/5 — None

*2025-09-19*

So your 1st release was 11 months ago, and still the only app supported is your own?  Nice idea, poor support.

### 2/5 — What a waste, I want to give 5 Stars so badly

*2025-09-07*

I understand the appeal of wanting developers to natively support Stream Deck devices, but why no middle ground of at least allowing general hotkey binding/image customization and profiles? Opening general support like this would fuel more to purchase Stream Deck devices for iPad use, which would catch the attention of more developers incentivize them to implement native support for their apps versus the other way around. I have a different keypad I use for the iPad (Huion Keydial) that allows for general keybinding, so I know this is possible. I love the Stream Deck + on desktop, and the UI/utility/hardware is incredible! This all-or-nothing approach on iPad however is such a shame and an even bigger waste because so much utility could be gleamed from just allowing general shortcut key binding/image customization separated by profiles as a placeholder for your apps of choice until native support arrives for them. I will be the first to change this review to 5 stars if they make this app even slightly more flexible in that regard. There are SOO many animation apps on iPad that would sing with this device, just let me bing generic keys to it, PLEASE! 🙏🙏🙏

### 5/5 — It works love emojis 36

*2025-03-07*

One app one step towards creating greatness for all of those who do not own  pc only iPad works with  iPad Air gen  5 stream deck xl

### 2/5 — Cannot enable driver in settings

*2025-02-07*

iPad OS 18.3 with Stream Deck XL. I see the option in SD connect but I cannot enable the driver.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at help.elgato.com for further assistance. We’re here to help! Your Elgato team

### 1/5 — Please fix app.

*2024-12-03*

The SD Connect app is disappointing. While enabling the driver worked, the Stream Deck Pedal button doesn’t do anything. I was expecting a configuration screen like on a Mac.

Currently, I use the pedal in the back of the room with a wire running into my Mac for my church’s youth group. If this app worked, I could sit in the front row with just a wire to my iPad using Luna Display. I hope the developer fixes this soon—it has potential but doesn’t meet my needs.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work on iPad OS 18

*2024-09-30*

I install then go to settings to enable driver so it will read and see neo but there is no option in settings to enable driver at all!

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! The issues you’re experiencing are due to a bug in iPadOS 18, which has been addressed in iPadOS 18.1. We recommend updating to iPadOS 18.1 and trying again. If the problem persists, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at help.elgato.com for further assistance. We’re here to help! Your Elgato team

In the meantime, we recommend either installing the developer beta of iPadOS 18.1 or waiting for the official public release to try again.

Thank you for your understanding.
Best regards,
Your Elgato Team
