does the magnetic screen off work when the cover is closed on the screen?

Yes it does...by the way, my iPad fits perfectly in the case-never had an issue with it falling out

Yes there is a small magnet that holds the cover shut, i dont know what others were complaining about my cover stays shut just fine

No. My phone will eventually turn the screen off, but not as soon as I close the case.

Not that I can see. The strap is best used to keep the cover tight. Closing the cover turns off the screen. Opening the cover turns on the screen. Sorry for the delay.

Yes, the cover is magnetic and it will wake up your iPad when opened and put it to sleep when you close the cover. :-)

I have not experienced an problems with the magnetic catch or case. In fact, If I am not mistaken, thet magnetic part of the catch is located on the bottom of the case - beneath and away from the keyboard. Thus, I could not see how the magnet would impact the screen area. WIth that said, the catch does require attention to properly secure the case. Othewwise, I have not experienced any problems thus far.

Yes it holds securely with magnet and turns pad off when closed and on when opened. Great cover to own.

Yes it does. It has a magnetic thing that turns the ipad off to save battery but when you move the cover off the screen it turns back on to your previous screen or to the lock/save screen if its been a while. Its a pretty good quality item for the price. :)

I believe the screen cover in the back comes off if you turn it, but I'm not sure.

It is magnetic and stays closed. It will also turn on and off the screen when you open and close it!

Yes, when you close the flap over the screen the IPad shuts off. The reverse holds true - when you take the flap off the iPad it turns on. It stays closed fairly well but if you keep it with other items (like in your purse) the flap can be moved which turns the iPad on.

No, flipping down the cover simultaneously flips the power switch off. Aka, it takes two steps to turn it on (flip open, flip switch) but one step turns it off (flip close)

Yes. When I take the tablet out of the case it works perfectly well. When I put it back I have the same problem with the screen. And the areas of the screen that are affected right underneath the area where magnets are located in the case.

It does have a magnet closure works great. When closed screen is off using very little battery as it sleeps. When opened it resumes wherever you were. Cover make a nice stand also. Everything I wanted in a small protective case. I have had it since Dec 2014.

It looks to me like the slim tabs at the centers of the open edges hold magnetic components. These work just fine to keep the cover closed. Somehow they also turn off my kindle screen when shut. BTW- I love the sleekness of this cover- it's easy on the hands and feels like it was made as one with the Kindle..

The cover is held magnetically when it is closed on the screen. However, if you peel it back from the screen it flaps free even if you pull it all the way behind. This is a really beautiful and sturdy case.

No but you still have access to the power button to turn the screen off when the magnetic closure is over the phone. Hope that helped.
