I have been trying to use a keyboard or a mouse on MCPE 1.0.5 on my iPad Pro and iPhone 7+. First I have tried using the iPad Pro Smart Keyboard and it didn't work. All I could do with it in MCPE is typing in the chat box, but it doesn't work for gameplay at all. I have recently bought a bluetooth keyboard from Anker and it does the same thing as the smart keyboard (Only works with chat not gameplay controls). I have also purchased a Lightning to USB Camera Adapter from apple to connect my mouse with. I have noticed that the mouse gets power and lights up but I couldn't control anything in the game. I have tried changing the inputs in the keyboard settings (e.g. setting P instead of Q to drop an item) and it basically doesn't change to any other key, as if the game is not sensing that there is a keyboard connected to my iPad or iPhone (Tried both with no luck so far). I have tried to connect my iPhone to a controller and it works fine.
Any idea on how to get the keyboard and mouse working?

I don't believe that keyboard or mouse support is available in the iOS or Android version of Pocket Edition. Only Windows 10 Edtion.
You can however use a bluetooth game controller with it, just check to make sure the one you choose is compatible.
Yes, it is. Do some research before embarrassing yourself on a public forum.
