ZAGG Messenger Folio Universal Keyboard User Guide

INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on owning the most versatile, most comfortable keyboard available. As you’re about to see, the Messenger Universal is easy to use and helps you get the most from your tablet, phone, or home computer. Now you can enjoy Zagg’s famous typing experience anywhere, on any device.

PAIRING YOUR DEVICES

Your Messenger Universal can pair with virtually any Apple®, Android®, or Windows® device – including your home computer. Here’s how to pair it with whatever device you like:

1.  Lift the cover off the keyboard and either fold it forward along its creased lines toward your keyboard, or back
   toward the underside of your keyboard. Folding it forward creates a convenient stand to hold your smartphone or tablet while you work and play. Folding it back angles the keyboard for a more ergonomic feel while you type. Whichever way is best for you, when you fold the cover into place you’ll feel the magnets hidden inside it connect.
2.  Turn your Messenger Universal Keyboard on by moving the power switch to the On position. A green LED will light, indicating it has powered on.
3.  Access the Bluetooth® settings on your device and ensure your Bluetooth connection is on.
4. Press your Messenger Universal’s Bluetooth key. The LED will flash blue indicating your keyboard is looking to pair with your device.
5.  Program your keyboard based on the type of device you are pairing. For Windows devices, press Fn + W. For Apple devices press Fn + I. For Android
   devices, press Fn + A.
6. Select “ZAGG Keyboard” from your device’s list of available Bluetooth devices.
7.  Follow any other pairing requirements based on your device.
