FAQs


Question 1: How to connect iPad to Cricut Explore Air 2? 

Answer: Connecting Cricut to an iPad is a breeze. However, you must know that connecting all iOS devices, including iPhones and iPads, is the same. Here’s how to pair Cricut Explore Air 2 to iPad:  


  1. Turn on your iPad and go to the Settings tab.

  3. Ensure your machine is also turned on so that the iPad can detect it.

  4. Once done, click on the detected machine from the available list. 

  5. After that, your pairing process is done. 


Question 2: Do all Cricut machines connect via Bluetooth? 

Answer: Yes, with the latest models, such as Explore Air 2, Explore 3, Maker, Maker 3, Joy, Joy Xtra, and Venture, you can easily connect to your computer and smartphone using Bluetooth. However, the older Cricut models, including Explore One, require a wireless Bluetooth adapter. 


Question 3: Are all types of Bluetooth adapters compatible with Cricut? 

Answer: I would recommend you use the Bluetooth dongle that supports audio devices. Because Cricut doesn’t guarantee that all the dongles are compatible or will pair with your Cricut cutting machine. However, it is seen that those dongles that support the audio devices are often able to pair with Cricut hassle-free.
