does this turn off the ipad air and keep it off? I have a Logitech one that does not and I hate it! Need a replacement

Yes, I love it. I have a Logitech too and it wasn't that great. This one makes it feel like its a mini laptop...

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.

Hi Henry...if you mean does it turn the iPad off when you close the case and turns it on when you open the case, then "yes!"

Hi Steve: Yes this does work just fine with Ipad Air. That is what I have and have used it with since I bought it a few months ago. Mark P

No it doesn't. Here is a reply I received from Belkin support. "The sleep/wake function is a setting on the iPad itself. You have the option to select or specify the time when your iPad will go to sleep when you close the cover." I have the Belkin keyboard case for the iPad 3 and when I close the case, the iPad goes to "sleep". As far as I can tell, this feature is NOT part of the Qode case for the iPad Air.

I've noticed that it depends on which way you have your iPad rotated. Someone else mentioned that in the comments as well. Mine will turn off if the button is on the right, but not if it's on the left.

I don't think this will work for the ipad air. Please note that I did not keep the item. I sent it back. Did not like it.

Yes , you have to take the iPad out of a Smart Cover to use with the Logitech.. Highly recommend this product .

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

I have an iPad mini and it works, but I've never tried it with the Air. Sorry

It CAN shut off but the iPad settings must be set to do that. Settings - Lock/Unlock has to be ON.

Well, yes as in it detaches from your iPad. It works with Bluetooth, so it doesn't plug directly into or draw power from your iPad. However the keyboard and case are one piece, that the iPad fits into. So you can't detach the keyboard and keep the iPad in the case, if that's what you meant.Hope this helped!

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).

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. :)

That's not happened to me Amee. I don't turn off the keyboard therefore it's always on, I'm assuming it's at rest as well as when the ipad air goes into sleep/hibernate mode. Once I activate it again, the keyboard automatically syncs. Perhaps you should try contacting the manufacturer or the place where you bought it. Sorry for your problem. Still, I would like to know what they say about your issue when they help you problem solve.

I switched out the white case for the black one and I'm having the same problem. The white case worked fine but the black case does not turn off the ipad.

Power-saving feature, or misfeature, of the device. Its fatal flaw. Best workaround is to turn up the volume high on the iPad, and use the volume controls of the Logitech to control volume.

I don't know if I can help you, actually we have an iPad Air fixed in. It works very well.
