iPad Bluetooth Mouse - “May affect bluetooth & wifi connectivity”

[c14nhl]

I get the attached message when I connect my Microsoft Arc Bluetooth mouse to the iPad running iPadOS 13.4

Is anyone else seeing this? I’m not experiencing any negative impact of wifi or bluetooth when the mouse is connected, interested if anyone else is?

Yes, it seems very common. I get it for both my Microsoft mouse and Apple Magic mouse 1. Many people report it with other mice.

2.4ghz frequency is used for wifi and bt. The bluetooth profile used for a mouse (HID) is demanding on the iPad's wireless hardware. To maintain proper mouse/trackpad resolution can cause a decrease in performance in other places. They just want to make you aware of this...

Just updated to 13.4.1, I assume if my bt mouse is paired to my mac and I’m sitting with my iPad next to Mac which is on, I cannot pair the mouse to iPad (it doesn’t show up in bt on iPad).

I do have an older bt Apple mouse, I will have to try that one..... 🤔

I just got this message on a new keyboard for my iPad Mini 5. I've never gotten the message before using any other device, which has included even older bluetooth keyboards.
I tried the Magic Mouse v1- it also gave this message.
I tried an old Zagg Keyboard, as well as my very old (10yrs) Mac bluetooth keyboard- neither of those give this message.
What gives?

So is this what is shown when the wifi is on a 2.4, and also using bt?
