Very reliable operation
🎼 My requirements for this device were that it should be relatively inexpensive, rechargeable with good battery life, easy to use and install, show reliable operation, and be compatible with Mobile Sheets Pro, my performance sheet music program of choice. This device specification fits my criteria, and having used this page turner for over two months as I write this, it has, in use, met all my criteria very well.⭐ I really like the following features:👍 The cost of the device is reasonable, and while it is not the cheapest, it is not the most expensive either. It’s a good middle ground, and given everything else that’s good about the product, it's excellent value for money.👍 I charged the page turner on receipt, although it does come part charged, so you can get going as soon as you open the box if you are in a hurry. In fact, over the last two months, I have used it for a few hours once per week and have not needed to recharge yet. Recharging is done via the supplied USB-C cable. No power supply is included, but I used a spare phone charger without any problems.👍 Installation was a breeze, and with Bluetooth activated on my tablet, the music software detected the page turner right away. The page turner has a variety of modes of operation for the activity it simulates: page up or down, left or right arrow on a keyboard, etc. I chose the latter, and detecting this activity worked flawlessly. I don’t intend to use any of the other modes or the repeat feature, and perhaps the controls could be simplified, but it’s a minor point, and separate buttons do make selecting the correct mode very easy. This might come into its own if you have to reset the device mid-performance, and just pressing your preferred mode button to get the synchronisation you need would be quick and simple.👍 In use, the page turner works well with almost no lag, and anything appreciable might equally be down to the music software. It automatically pairs with Bluetooth on activation, and the pedals are well positioned and respond well to a foot press. I have not had any instance where I pressed the pedal and it missed a command, and it is therefore working reliably for me. I can’t find anything significant on the negative side, and I am very happy with the device. ✔️

works well for music
This makes turning pages much easier, especially when you are playing difficult and fast music where you don't particularly have the time to turn a page manually (or even tap or swipe a screen). There is also a small range of different input options which allow it to be used with different applications.It sometimes disconnects from my device and the light starts flashing like it has an error message. This is a rare occurrence and usually happens after I have not touched it for 20 minutes (which doesn't happen during a piece of music usually). Turning it off and on fixes this issue. Another thing is that on mine the On/Off button is a bit broken meaning you have to properly pull the switch to the "On" side to switch on. All in all, it works really well for this price point and is not in my opinion as overpriced as some of the other peadles on the market.

Excellent customer service
I bought this to enhance concert performances removing the need to turn pages on my tablet by hand. It is a very effective device. However my unit developed a fault after about 5 weeks. The led that indicates that the unit is charging has stopped working. Customer service insisted that I send a video of the problem which I did. They then suggested turning the unit on whilst charging and send another video which I did. Since then (3 working days) I have had no contact from LEKATO at all despite a number of chasing emails. LEKATO got back to me yesterday morning (25 Sep23) apologising for the delay and saying that they would replace the unit. It arrived the next day!Very happy with this excellent service. I have no hesitation in recommending the product and the aftersales service.

Important part of my workflow!
UPDATE: Over six months later and it’s still working great! Actually, it’s become such an important work tool, that I don’t know what I’d do without it. Would definitely buy another!As someone who edits audiobooks, both my hands are busy manipulating the audio gear, so it makes following the manuscript a bit difficult as I had to keep reaching up and scrolling up on my tablet. I thought, wouldn’t it be nice if there was a foot switch I could trigger each time I wanted to scroll a bit. I searched Amazon and found this little gem. I’ve only been using it a few days, so time will tell how long it lasts, but so far so good. I found it very easy to connect initially and each time I turn it on, it’s ready to scroll my text in seconds. Plus, the pedal is easy to push - I can easily just rest my toes on the edge of it and press as needed - yet not too sensitive to go off at any slight movement. Highly recommended!

Set up in 20 seconds
Works perfectly. Dead easy to set up. Seems to be well constructed. Positive action when pressed with near instantaneous page turns.

Great page turner
Received only couple of days but it worked straight from the box with ipad air, connected in an instant. Nice size and good quality overall. No click sound at all, super silent and yet precise in turning page (tested with Piascore). Bought for using with Camelot pro app for scene patch changes for keyboards. Not mentioned in the description so bit worried initially or also in the manual but it worked beautifully with no need to set up, amazing. Couldn't be more happy for this purchase, not least is the cheapest on amazon and surely the best overall.
