iPad->hdmi-projector + Airpods bluetooth + Bluetooth speaker + remote bluetooth ?

Hi everyone,

I want to be ready for a presentation.

So I must purchase some stuff.

Before that I wanted to check if it will work.

I want to connect my iPad (it is on iOS 12 or 13, not like the description) to a video projector with HDMI.

The iPad will be connected also to airpods, a remote and a Bluetooth speaker.

So 2 issues I can see :

1) Can I use 3 devices in bluetooth connected to the iPad ? It will supports it ?

2) Can all the audio output (airpods micro+iPad) from my iPad be sended to the Bluetooth speaker ?

Thanks in advance for helping.

There is an app to use the micro of AirPods, and direct my voice from AirPods to Ipad to bluetooth speaker like this https://apps.apple.com/us/app/bluetooth-loudspeaker/id1462186966?

If yes, can i play a video on the iPad and speak with airpods, the audio output from both will go to the bluetooth speaker ?

Using a VGA connection is a different proposition. VGA is video only - with no audio. As such, you should be able to direct audio to a single output of your choice - such as your Bluetooth Speaker.

When connecting your iPad via HDMI to a TV/Monitor/Projector, all audio output from the iPad is directed to the HDMI connection - as audio capabilities of the HDMI device are assumed. This behaviour is hard-coded - and cannot be overridden by device settings.

As such, what you are attempting to achieve in simultaneously routing audio to a Bluetooth speaker is not natively possible.
