3. Make sure Bluetooth is toggled on at the top.
4. Put your mouse into pairing mode.
5. Your device should appear under a header in the Bluetooth interface called Other Devices
6. Press the name of your device.
7. You might get a “Bluetooth Pairing Request.” If you do, press pair.

Your mouse should start functioning; if you see the new circular pointer, that indicates it is active.

You can customize your mouse experience by navigating to Settings > General > Trackpad and Mouse. There, you can adjust the tracking speed and select whether the Secondary Click (right-click) will be on the right or left side.
