QuestionSo does this have pre-set color changing led's like the hyperx alloy core? or do I have to install software to change the colors? I know it says 10-zone rgb illumination, im just very new to pc stuff and not sure.
Asked 5 years ago by NicePerson.
- Answer SteelSeries Engine is the software you would need to install to make mods to the color options. You will want to install the software if you want something more than a rainbow keyboard. There is a control button (FN key) that combined with F9 rotates thru the color configs.

QuestionCan this keyboard be used on an IPad 10th generation to play Minecraft/Roblox?
Asked 1 year ago by KB.
- Answer Hello KB: You can connect USB devices such as the Apex 3 to your iPad 10th Generation however it would require a USB-C to USB adapter. There are several manufactures that make the adapter so if you purchase one, then your Apex 3 would work once the adapter is plugged in and keyboard is connected to the adapter via the USB. I hope that helps. Best, PW

QuestionDoes the lighting turn off when the computer goes to sleep?
Asked 4 years ago by Monkeysee32.
- Answer It depends on how your computer handles power flowing through the USB ports during sleep mode. On my PC they do shut off in sleep mode, but others have reported that they don't. Another thing you may encounter is the keyboard staying on after you shut down your PC, or it lighting back up if you bump it when the computer is shut down. Again, this is based on how your computer handles power flowing from the USB ports.

QuestionCan i Plug a mouse into this keyboard?
Asked 5 years ago by someone.
- Answer No, it's just a standard USB keboard with no inputs on board. That said, a USB multiport adapter/dongle is very inexpensive if you're short on USB ports. I'm using my mouse and this board on on, on a USB 2.0 port with no power issues.
