My Smart Keyboard Is draining my 2016 iPad Pro battery. Apple Support cannot help. Just opened a case number for me without solving my issue.

message while Smart Keyboard is Connected

Smart Connector is clean (without any debris or cracks or nicks) and it attaches very strong with its magnet. Has anybody experienced this problem and had it resolved, and if so, what fixed the problem?

Apple Support cannot help. Just opened a case number for me without solving my issue.

Apple offers extended three year repair program for iPad Pro Smart Keyboards w/ sticking keys & other ‘functional’ issues.

Your Model Smart Keyboard for 9.7-inch iPad pro (Early 2016) is covered by this.

Apple will also be issuing refunds to customers that previously paid for a replacement for keyboards eligible under the new program.

  • What Apple Support.....??? I’ve already contact them and they gave me no solution. Just a case number to call some country in the EU other than Greece because Apple greece number do not answer when I called them. I’ve been calling then 3days now at least 10 times a day. So put yourself in my shoes having Apple support making a case number for you &telling you to call a EU support number other than your county’s to give you a solution for your case number. @@@@@ TRAGIC 🤪🤪🤪😂😂😂😂😂
