BookArc for iPad Basics
BookArc is designed for normal interaction with iPad. Touching, swiping and pinching the iPad touchscreen to navigate and operate is fine. If you're playing games or using apps requiring more aggressive use of iPad, we strongly suggest holding it in your hands. When you're done, set iPad back in your BookArc to store and charge.
BookArc is elevated allowing easy access to the charging port while iPad is in portrait mode. However, you can charge iPad while in any orientation in BookArc.
BookArc comes in very handy if you want to go hands free and pair iPad with a Bluetooth enabled keyboard. Visit Apple.com for details about using a wireless keyboard with iPad.
