is it safe for iPad air when I want to type? Thanks!

Not being able to adjust the angle did not work for me, so I got something else.

This is a VERY sturdy stand that folds down flat enough that it will easily fit in pocket or purse, and sturdy enough that it would take a LOT for anyone to break it. I'm not familiar with the iPad Air, so... if it's a computer, then I would not recommend this stand. However, if it's a Tablet, then yes, it would work well for the majority of Tablets. Most people choose to type with the screen horizontal (for better viewing) and I think that's the best position, however, it will work vertically as well. Keep in mind, the stand is not adjustable for different angles. or reference, I have 2 Barnes & Noble Nooks (one is a 7 inch; one is a 9 inch), and it works well with both. Measurements for the stand are: 3 6/8" vertically (from the rest notch), and 2 3/4" wide. Hope all this info helps.

It is safe for the Air but typing is awkward on any raised platform, I find.

Matt, The unit itself is very stable. The keyboard doesn't shift in relation to the iPad and the iPad maintains the angle you choose. But I hate typing on my lap, because the iPad & keyboard is much smaller than a laptop. I had the exact situation Saturday and the unit moved because my legs don't lend themselves to stability. I can't keep my thighs together (good thing I'm not a woman!). My solution is to put my briefcase or a large folder/tablet on my lap to provide a more stable surface. But the shifting is not the fault of the Airbender. In fact, I'm finding is very stable in almost every configuration.

The case does not turn off the screen. I found this official tweet: @BelkinCares Does the QODE Ultimate Keyboard Case (F5L151ttBLK) turn off the iPad Air screen automatically when the case is closed? - 17 Jan BelkinCares: @water604 Hi. This doesn't have that feature. However, it has a lot of other features. Check here: bit.ly/HLJpdL 05:21 PM - 17 Jan 14

I have never had a problem with that even when the ipad is in my purse. Is the magnetic part (that connects the keyboard to the ipad when closed) working? When you close it, just make sure the Home key is on the right. Other than that, I'm not sure what the problem might be.

I haven't had any problems with that. The thickness of the cover into which the ipad slides is sufficient to keep the screen and the keyboard from coming in contact with each other.I have been thrilled with this case since the day it arrived. It protects my ipad. I also find it a great way to travel. I fly about half the year and use my ipad on the planes.

Make sure the iPad is compatible with the case. I tried an iPad Air 2 in my folio and it did the same thing. The magnet that activates the keyboard is located in slightly different places on the two newest iPad Air tablets.

I bought the iPad Air 2 yesterday and also tested a couple of the available keyboards in store. This logitech bluetooth keyboard barely works because the iPad Air 2 is slightly thinner than the iPad Air 1; actually, 6.1 mm vs. 7.5 mm, respectively, which is quite a bit. Therefore, it doesn't feel quite as sturdy and safely held in place. I decided to wait for a few weeks to see whether an updated model is released. I would recommend you do the same. I hope this helps.

Kaylee,It does not appear to have an effect on either the iPad or case, although I have removed it only a few times. The case/keyboard is not large or heavy enough to require it when not using the keyboard.

It does work on iPad Air 2, but it's sort of loose (due to the thinner design of the newer iPad Air). This didn't really cause any problems with using the keyboard though, and I never worried about the iPad falling out.

The Belkin QODE Slim Style keyboard case has an undetachable keyboard. When you're done typing, you can fold the keyboard behind your iPad. Learn more about the keyboard here: http://www.belkin.com/au/iPad-Air-Keyboard-Cases

In my opinion absolutely. The rotating display allows the iPad to collapse completely over the keyboard, so the is no angled gap between the iPad and the keyboard like other models. The apostrophe is an actual key and does not require the user to hold down function to activate it.

That's not happened to me Amee. I don't turn off the keyboard therefore it's always on, I'm assuming it's at rest as well as when the ipad air goes into sleep/hibernate mode. Once I activate it again, the keyboard automatically syncs. Perhaps you should try contacting the manufacturer or the place where you bought it. Sorry for your problem. Still, I would like to know what they say about your issue when they help you problem solve.

I do not use an "iPad stylus" on my iPad Air. I use an regular stylus with no problem. The case is a little hard to adjust but it is secure.

HelloThe keyboard works perfectly welll. The angle options, the keys, etc... If you are worried the back pf the ipad might get scratched, since it has no protection, then this is not your product. Hope this helps.

Dear Tigerman82, Overall I love this keyboard and have only 2 minor issues to report. The screen lock key is directly above the delete key and I occasionally hit it by accident. I don't think any key should be on the top right except delete... Also, the space key occasionally sticks in the depressed position. It still functions properly when touched, but it doesn't make the reassuring little click that tells my brain it is going to work. I do not know if this is a defect in just my model or in others too. It is rare anyway, and always pops back up eventually. There are so many wonderful aspects of this product that I don't worry too much about those issues. Number one on that list is how securely the keyboard attaches to the iPad in the closed position. I have never had it slip open or off by accident like similar products by Logitech and others I have used. The backlighting is extremely nice, and the battery lasts seemingly forever. As to your specific question about your screen protector and backing, I am unfamiliar with either product and therefore unable to answer without knowing the total added width they bring to your device. I can tell you that the slot on the top of the keyboard used to stand the device in while typing has some extra room... and I believe if your screen protector doesn't add more that a millimeter of width, it would still work. If it adds a little more than that, I believe it might work, but would stand in a more upright position (rather than the slightly tilted position it is designed to be in). Wider than that and you would have to prop up the device some other way, as it definitely would not fit, though the keyboard would of course still work. I do believe that you would still be able to use the device in its closed position, but can't say for sure. Hope that helps

Yes, you can type on the keyboard when both are laid out flat. There is no special position that the iPad have to be in in order for you to use the keyboard.

No. The iPad sits in a trough like groove in the keyboard and it is a static angle and a rigid structure. I have found this very nice as the whole thing does not flop flat or slide apart if I set it on my lap or move it around while using it.
