Hi, is the magic keyboard compatible with the 11 inch first generation iPad Pro? It says it is on one page, but when you go to buy it only says second generation. Thanks :)

The iPad Magic Keyboard is itself available in two models - an 11” and 12.9”. It follows that the 11” model is required for the 11” iPad Pro.


The 12.9” iPad Pro third generation (2018) or fourth generation (2020) is compatible with the 12.9” iPad Magic Keyboard. These models of iPad Pro have a USB-C port and a bezel-less design with no Home Button.


The 11” iPad Pro is either first generation (2018) or second generation (2020) - and shares the same design features as the third/fourth generation 12.9” iPad Pro, albeit with a smaller screen and footprint.


The earlier first and second generation models the 12.9” iPad Pro were an entirely different design, featuring a Lightning port and a physical Home Button. These models of iPad Pro cannot be used with the new iPad Magic Keyboard.


I hope this information is helpful in providing the clarification that you seek.
