Does the screen cover shut off the ipad like the apple cover?

Yes. It has two magnets that will turn the screen off once it clicks into place.

Dear Kim it seems that my first answer to you was in fact wrong they should have a turn off. However neither of mine has worked for some reason, but they are very good covers hence I have two sorry about that,my answer was right as I experienced, but wrong as far as the cover should turn your IPad off

Jennifer, indeed it does turn the iPad off & keeps it off until you open it again. I generally don't even take it off anymore - the more I use, the more I like.

Yes. When the cover is closed the tablet screen goes off. When the cover is opened the screen comes on.

It is a cover. No screen cover though. I bought this separately. When unit is closed ipad is totally covered.

Not really. It puts the volume buttons out of touch, the control button on the left, which I consider uncomfortable. When closed, that is both covers closed, it doesn't really fit neatly, but magnetic off does seem to work. I wouldn't recommend using both covers unless one plans to leave the iPad in a fixed location rather than carrying between work and home. Hope this helps.

The case does not turn off the screen. I found this official tweet:@BelkinCares Does the QODE Ultimate Keyboard Case (F5L151ttBLK) turn off the iPad Air screen automatically when the case is closed? - 17 JanBelkinCares:@water604 Hi. This doesn't have that feature. However, it has a lot of other features. Check here: bit.ly/HLJpdL 05:21 PM - 17 Jan 14

Yes it does. Before putting the case on we cleaned the screen very well and notice it left a couple of bubbles so we removed the case and cleaned it again. It left a couple regardless but once the iPad is actually on you can't tell.

It will be put on stand by, not exactly shut off. When you open the cover, the iPad wakes up.

When you close the cover on the iPad cover your iPad goes to sleep (to not waste battery) and when you open the cover it wakes up. This is optional. You can go into the settings of your iPad to turn this function off - yes (I also read this portion on a previous review).

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

No it does not. There is room when it is closed for you to turn off your iPad though.

No it doesn't. We put a screen saver on the screen before we put the iGuy on. We love the iGuy however, it is so much easier for our 8 year old to handle the iPad.

Yes! When you close the cover it turns off and when you open the cover it turns on! This is a great I-Pad cover!!

I bought a off brand cover, but seem similar to apple cover. It comes off without taking the ipad out of the case. Hope this helps.

Yes, it completely covers the iPad, front and back. The edges are only slightly exposed. The iPad doesn't go to the very edge. It sits inside about a half inch so it's protected if you drop it and it lands on an edge The iPad is held in place with elastic anchors in each corner but it doesn't latch shut. It opens easily like a book.

The standard ipad magnetic cover will come off easily without removing the back case. The magnetic on/off feature of the cover isn't quite as good with the case though, so you have to be certain it turns off when you shut the cover.
