For a specific use case, I would need a USB-C multitouch touchpad for iPad Pro. Does anyone know if there are any other options than the Magic Trackpad using wired USB connection? Apple documentation is not clear whether such device must be MFi-compliant, or if a generic multitouch touchpad complying with the Chapter 14 of Accessory Design Guidelines HID protocol would do.
 
Why NOT the Magic Trackpad? Mine works flawlessly with my iPad Air, running a USB-C to Lightning cable from the Trackpad into my Ultrafine’s USB-C ports.

I'm trying to emulate a multi-touch USB-C touchpad. I'd like to understand whether the accessory must be MFi-compliant, or not. From the developer documentation this is not clear to me. An example of a third party USB-C multitouch USB-C touchpad could prove that such a thing can exist.
