Not sure if this has been asked I can’t find any info on it.
I use my MacBook Pro with a monitor and a Magic Trackpad for it and magic keyboard is it possible to switch from the MacBook Pro to the iPad relatively easily? with the trackpad and the keyboard? id like to just switch back and forth if it’s possible.

You could use Sidecar, although that would more or less turn your iPad into a second monitor.

yes I plan on that but when im on the couch and don't have my computer around id like to use the Magic Trackpad on it. Just don't know how fast it switches over to a different device. Its fast on AirPods but that's a little different. Cant find any info online about switching devices like this.

No it does not, you need to remove and repair in my experience
