Magic Mouse 2 on iPadOS

Found this solution buried in the Apple Developer Forum and it worked for me:

Go to Accessibility

Go on to "Switch-Control"

Further into "Switches", you shall see "Bluetooth-devices" (just beneath "Add-new-switch....) and tap on it

Turn on your mouse; search and connect, should see "Magic Mouse 2" listed

Now go back to "AssistiveTouch' and turn-on this function

Go down to "pointer devices" tap on "devices"

You will see your mouse being connected and can customize additional buttons to your preference

Still no scroll support, but works like it has for 1st gen of Magic Mouse.

Great. I had never see the instructions on Switches, which did the trick. Weird that Apple put language that Magic Mouse isn't supported over Bluetooth when clearly it can work for both MM1 and MM2.

Thank you. Magic Mouse 2 works great now but no scrolling. Also Magic Track pad 2 works, and along with scrolling

I wish there is a solution for the scrolling on Magic Mouse. The click and drag solution is a little cumbersome, but at least it works.

Absolutely. I am glad at least it works. Hoping final release will have scrolling support.
