    Xbox App Keyboard Still Not Working


    I've been using the Xbox App as a keyboard on my iPad when sending messages direct to another player and for in-game onscreen messages. This is no longer working.

    I bring the up keyboard on the Xbox One using the controller, while having my Xbox App open on the iPad, the app would then take over pulling up its own keyboard, allowing me to enter the messages via the iPad.

    This worked perfectly until the launch of the new look Xbox App around November 2020. Since then it has not worked at all. I can view all of my games, achievements, friends, remote play etc. Only the app keyboard no longer works.

    I’ve tried contacting Xbox, but even though they tell me the problem has been escalated, I never get any help.

    I’ve tried deleting and reinstalling the app multiple times and resetting the Xbox One (saving my games), but still it does not work.

    I am hoping someone can help fix this.

    Thank you.

    HELP!!!

    Tried all these still no keyboard and I have the app but I'd still expect everything on the Xbox to work after spending £420 on it.

    compatibilité [Edit - Translation] - compatibility

    Hello there,

    Thank you for posting here on the Xbox forums. At this time, from what I can find, all keyboards and mouse are supported. Here is our

    Keyboard and Mouse Article.


    Although, a fancier keyboard and mouse that requires certain drivers for extra buttons/features may not be 100% compatible. However, You would still be able to use the base functions.

    Note Xbox supports the use of mouse and keyboard in some games and apps, but it doesn’t work for every game or app. The game or app publisher must enable this feature for their content.

    Hope this helps!

    Some questions about the Mouse and keyboard support

    Hi DRnoam,

    I'm SamanthaCheung, a MCP. Hopefully my reply below answer your questions.

    1. According to
    Xbox One
    , not all game and app supports mouse and keyboard. For some games and app, the mouse and keyboard support feature need to enabled before you can use it. It's recommended you consult the game or app publisher if you're not sure about this.

    2. Almost every USB keyboard work with Xbox One. It depends on the game or the app you'll play on Xbox One. To use a USB keyboard or mouse on Xbox One, you'll need an input adapter. See

    How to Use Keyboard and Mouse on Xbox One
    .

    3. Yes. The controller will still be active when you're using the keyboard or mouse. And you can use the controller to configure the mouse.
