Before connecting IARVEL Pads to PeekSmith 3:

  1. Update firmware first โ€” Make sure you have PeekSmith 3 firmware v1.9.12 or later.

  2. Use exact device names โ€” In the IARVEL app, verify your pad uses the exact name:

    • IARVEL PAD (all caps)
    • PAD MINI (all caps, not โ€œiPad Miniโ€)
    • PAD Pro (exact casing)
    • PAD Pro Max (exact casing)
  3. Check for errors:

    • No typos in device name
    • No extra spaces
    • Correct capitalization (IARVEL PAD and PAD MINI must be all caps)

The most common cause is incorrect device naming in the IARVEL app.

The PeekSmith app supports additional pads beyond this list.
