So its great we have this - but its causing a lot of frustration in the Assistive Technology industry - notably what the heck is iOS requiring in way of a HID pointing device's power? Here is a small segment of issues:Using a headmouse nano (https://www.orin.com/access/headmouse/) "tried this properly yesterday – i.e. using an external battery pack (charging on the mains) with a standard iPad and the USB3 iPad connector + headmouse nano.It initially worked, but then seemed to occasionally drop out – and sporadically come up with the ‘drawing too much power’ error. I think this is possibly because the battery pack has some kind of power-cycling (didn’t get a chance to test this)?I then tested it without a battery pack – i.e. straight off a (2A) charger – and it _seemed_ to not drop out (though I didn’t get a chance to test it for long)."And then .."More of the above really but I've had a couple of unpleasant surprises with pointer control on iOS, particularly when on a visit I found that the mini point-it and standard point-it draw too much power for both iOS13 via a cable, and through the AMANeo. Today I discovered also that the Dynamics REM400 doesn't support iOS13 - it will pair but doesn't come up as an option in Mouse Mover on the controller."(http://www.inclusive.co.uk/pointit-pc-joystick-p5310)Is there any details that we can have on whats actually going on here with iOS mouse control (i.e. power requirements) so we can work out what clients can use?Thanks
