Update 12 Jul 2024: iPad & Android driver v2.0.1 were released in Aug 2023. Custom keyboard shortcuts can now be created.

Hi there - Any update on the IPad Driver and usability? Heard that you can now map the buttons to work like a keyboard and then use the Keydial with other apps like Davinci Resolve. Is this correct?
@@WarwickPurdy The iPad driver v1.3 added in early June 2023 has more pre-programmed shortcuts, but you still cannot configure your own keyboard shortcuts.
This looks identical to the previous version and that one had a fatal design flaw where a key would get stuck and you can only unstuck them by finding the key which keeps sending the signal and press it again on the keydial. This made the previous version pretty much unusable and for example Amazon reviews have multiple mentions about the issue.
The only thing that was missing for me in the K100 was the lack of Bluetooth support. I don't need any dongles in my laptop when I'm putting it back in the sleeve. This solves that problem. Instant buy.
Can you press two keys simultaneously? For example having one set to CTRL and another one set to SPACE, can I press them together to zoom? Or you can just set CTRL + SPACE to a single key? I remember in a previous review, you mentioned that you couldn't press two keys simultaneously with the HUION KD100.
By any chance did they ever improve the android drivers? I was just about to buy this because it had an android driver... glad I watched the video haha.
Android also supports the use, but keydial only supports the change of key values. Whether different software is suitable depends on whether the software itself supports the key value shortcut function. If it supports it, it can be used. If it does not support it, it is not suitable.
I have a question. Is it possible to use the Keydial Mini and Mini Keydial KD100 simultaneously on one computer? For example, can I assign different settings on the Keydial Mini and Mini Keydial KD100 when working in Photoshop?
I've already sold off the older KD100 so I cannot test. If you need more shortcuts, check out the app called Tablet Pro Studio www.parkablogs.com/content/tablet-pro-studio-review-make-windows-drawing-apps-more-touch-friendly
That little crosshair cursor >_< I’m returning my 19 Pro 4k because I can’t see my stroke because of the cursor. Huion tried to help but it can’t be shut off.
Whether the crosshair cursor can be turned off depends on the app you use. It's not because of the pen display or Huion software. E.g. That crosshair is still there with your normal computer monitor
Tested with ipad driver v3.2.2 (Dec 2024) and it works fine. Huion has also added more apps with pre-programmed shortcuts. Shortcut key customisation is also available.
Hi. Logitech makes a keyboard called keys to go which is paper thin. I got mine on clearance, the price on the logitech site is 69.99 usd so it's not really worth it all full price.
It's unfortunate that this isn't as good for ipad since I already have a keyboard and I don't have a windows tablet Do you guys have any suggestion for something similar but for ipad?
Got to wait for Huion to update the driver app. There are actually many compact keyboard remotes out there, e.g. Wacom, Xencelabs, XPPen. But the problem is always the lack of driver. And in this case, the Huion driver isn't good enough, yet.
hi there i jut got the k20 and trought usb there is no problems but im traing to make it work with bluetooth but i never see it on the list of devices... how can i pair it ?
Customize any shortcut function that can be entered by key value, but the Dial switching interface only supports switching back and forth between 3 shortcut tools.
I no longer have Xencelabs remote. I still prefer using a full keyboard so that I can have access to all shortcuts. But if you were to ask me to choose between different remotes, I will go with one that has the most number of buttons for reason mentioned earlier.
Key remote control It is very difficult to say which key remote control is the best. Each has advantages and disadvantages With the Huion, for example, you have the largest range of supported systems, 3x Dial. With XPen, for example, you have Bluetooth and Bluetooth dongle (2 different connection types). And up to 40 keys (4 decks - 39 keys). And probably the handiest. Large selection of supported systems. Probably 4x dial. With the Xencelabs, for example, screen, 4x dial, up to 40 keys So, you see, you simply can't say.
@@teohontech7141 you mean edit the shortcut in windows /mac then use it in iOS Ipad ( then the shortcut auto will be detect in when i use clip studio iOS) ?
@@KaoChan The keydial is the physical product to buy. The driver software to for the Keydial to work with the computer is available for download from Huion's website.
I regret this purchase. Sofware is bugged as f, i need to uninstall/reinstall every week. Key change doesn't work 1 day every 2 days, zoom is bugged on photoshop. I've bought this because my Kamvas 12 is kinda bugged and the keys doesn't work very well (everything is updated), but this is worse...
69 US dollars, but 79 euros - looks like quite a nice product, but that's a rather annoying price-difference (not to mention the Kamvas Studio 16 at 2299 euros, compared to 1699 US dollars!)
Kind of overpriced, I bought a bluetooth macropad off aliexpress 12 buttons and 2 knobs. Came with software to remap the onboard memory so I just swapped out the keycaps and use that for everything on my S8+ for drawing in CSP

@@WarwickPurdy The iPad driver v1.3 added in early June 2023 has more pre-programmed shortcuts, but you still cannot configure your own keyboard shortcuts.
The Apple and Android drivers have been updated.
Note: There will be a K40 that is very similar to the Xencelab

yesterday i got mine ;D and i can say its worth the money yes
The only thing that was missing for me in the K100 was the lack of Bluetooth support. I don't need any dongles in my laptop when I'm putting it back in the sleeve. This solves that problem. Instant buy.
It seems an Android driver has come out. Can you please check if this now works with Samsung tablet
Can you press two keys simultaneously? For example having one set to CTRL and another one set to SPACE, can I press them together to zoom? Or you can just set CTRL + SPACE to a single key?
I remember in a previous review, you mentioned that you couldn't press two keys simultaneously with the HUION KD100.
You can with this, up to 3 keys together.
Supports 5 keys at the same time
@@teohontech7141 It's possible combine with mouse keys? Like SPACE + Middle Mouse Click? It's something that i only see on xp pen ac19.
@@GugartsAnimations No. Mouse actions are just mouse actions. Keyboard and mouse actions are separate.
@@teohontech7141 Holding two buttons together is not possible on the Mac driver. The second button overrides the first. It works on Windows, though.
Looks like with the newest firmware and ipad update any button can be mapped to anything! Dial works clockwise and counterclockwise too

Great video. Does this work with Adobe Illustrator actions and Premiere for scrubbing the timeline with the dial?
Did not test those. Anyway, as long as you can set a keyboard shortcut, you can use the dial for it.
Can the key dial turn knob, be programmed to be the arrows? To rotate brushes in Photoshop?
Yes. Just assign the keyboard shortcuts to the dial
You really need to be able to make your own shortcuts.
Also, they should get rid of the logo and add a second dial.
I have a question.
Is it possible to use the Keydial Mini and Mini Keydial KD100 simultaneously on one computer? For example, can I assign different settings on the Keydial Mini and Mini Keydial KD100 when working in Photoshop?

@@teohontech7141 Thank you for your response🙇🏻♂️
OF COURSE
This could be great for my Huion Kamvas 22 (I use it on Windows 10), as that pen-display has no function buttons (I got it at a great price, tho).
If you didn't, Tablet Pro has customizable on-screen keys and was designed for artists
@@LeftyPencil Thank you :)

it works with xp pen tablet?
Was there any updates since July 2024? Does it work properly with iPadOS 18?

Cuál es esa tablet y cuál es ese programa porfavor, gracias.
maybe this is what i need teoh...
my logitech k380 is too big and not easy to carry everywhere for my ipad..

@@teohontech7141 yeah I'll wait and see
They’ve updated the iPadOS app, and now the keys are customisable, AND the keydial works. 👍👍👍
@@jeebishak seems promising, ill look if its available in my country
hi there i jut got the k20 and trought usb there is no problems but im traing to make it work with bluetooth but i never see it on the list of devices... how can i pair it ?
Press the button on the side for pairing mode, the LED logo will flash.
Hi! may I know how many functions can you put on rotary knob?
Customize any shortcut function that can be entered by key value, but the Dial switching interface only supports switching back and forth between 3 shortcut tools.
Hi. Where can I find the latest drivers for Ipad?
It will auto update from Apple App Store if there is an update. Unless you disable auto update
Thats so sad about Clip Studio. I wanted to use it with Samsung Tab S8. You save me from a really huge mistake!
Hey Teoh, how’s your Xencelabs remote holding up? And which would you recommend, this keypad or the Xencelabs remote for pc?
I no longer have Xencelabs remote. I still prefer using a full keyboard so that I can have access to all shortcuts. But if you were to ask me to choose between different remotes, I will go with one that has the most number of buttons for reason mentioned earlier.
Thanks for the info

So, you see, you simply can't say.
Is there tab key in clip studio in ios?
There is. CSP has all the keyboard shortcut from the desktop version
@@teohontech7141 thanks! Sound great ! Can set all keyz! I am the one who bought the procreate keypad from you on carousel if you remember ...
@@teohontech7141 i can't set tab key in iOS clip studio
@@kelvinlee9735 In the Huion driver, you should be able to enter your keyboard shortcut, just enter Tab key there
@@teohontech7141 you mean edit the shortcut in windows /mac then use it in iOS Ipad ( then the shortcut auto will be detect in when i use clip studio iOS) ?
hi! does it work with Cintiq too?
Yes. You just need to install the Huion driver
@@teohontech7141 😲
The driver on the pc, right? And it comes with the key dial?
Thank you very much for replying 😊
@@KaoChan The keydial is the physical product to buy. The driver software to for the Keydial to work with the computer is available for download from Huion's website.
@@teohontech7141 oh! i see!
thank you! 🥰🥰🥰
Can i set arrows keys in clip studio ios
You can set any keys. Except iOS driver is buggy now.
@@teohontech7141 how do i set tab key in the key dial in iOS clip studio paint? Apparently i only given a very short list of shortcut
@@teohontech7141 how to set any key in iOS?
Thank you
no screen rotation yet sadly
That will depend on whether your app has keyboard shortcuts for rotation.
Is it compatible with wacom one tablet?
It should work
@@teohontech7141 thank you

oh that sucks. I hoped it would be good for a tablet.

I saw them now for 50 euros in the Netherlands! They have different prices in different sites, and some of the tablets are now cheaper too
Kind of overpriced, I bought a bluetooth macropad off aliexpress 12 buttons and 2 knobs. Came with software to remap the onboard memory so I just swapped out the keycaps and use that for everything on my S8+ for drawing in CSP
What’s the link to the product? I will buy and try too
yeah where's the link i want to check it too
So sorry to hear about the lack of a good driver for Android. Please consider updating the review if/when an Android driver becomes available.
I will do in a few months time. Meanwhile I really enjoy using this with Concepts app on Windows. Works so well
