Apple says it didn’t just replicate the cursor and mouse experience that you get on a Mac. Instead, the cursor is similar to the circular one that has worked as an accessibility feature since iPad OS was released last fall. It sounds like the circle will morph and change shape to highlight different user interface options as you move around the display, highlighting different UI elements as well as text to make it clear what things you can click on and manipulate. While the basic design is similar to that accessibility mouse support, the way the circular cursor transitions to work with other elements is definitely new.

The trackpad will also support plenty of gestures, including access to the control center, dock and multitasking options like Slide Over view. It’ll work with all of Apple’s built-in apps, but the company says most third-party apps will work without any change from their developers.

Naturally, the iPad’s trackpad support works with the new keyboard that Apple released along side the new iPad Pro, but external trackpads and mice will work as well. The company’s Magic Mouse 2 and Magic Trackpad 2 will work, and USB-connected third-party mice and trackpads will work as well. If you want to use a Bluetooth device, it sounds like you’re limited to Apple’s own expensive options.
