It has 3 easy-switch Bluetooth buttons that you can use to quickly move between multiple devices. The one I like best is the Logitech K811. I have been using one at work for about four years now when I dock my MacBook Pro or Surface Pro 4 and connect it to a monitor. Some are better than others, but in theory just about any Bluetooth keyboard will work with an iPad. There are lots of Bluetooth keyboards available for the iPad, and by lots I mean LOTS. Could I use an iPad, and only an iPad, for a week? No reason why not, right?! The challenge was on, and I took a Bluetooth keyboard along for the ride. In it, the author made a case that desktop operating systems are less relevant than they used to be, so that got me thinking. However, I happened to read an article entitled, Stop Using A Laptop in 2017 It’s Time To Use A Tablet. On a “normal” week I would spend my time switching between a MacBook, a Surface Pro 4, and my iPad for the tasks that I need to get done. I resolved to use the iPad as my only device for a week. This week, however, I decided to try something a little different. I can’t type as fast as I can on a standard keyboard, but I can type fast enough to churn out emails and blog posts with no real concerns. The on-screen keyboard was fine for what I needed to do and unlike a lot of people, I really have no problem typing on the screen. If you want a specific symbol and don’t want to waste time switching keyboards, simply hold down a letter and a list of respective symbols will pop up and you can choose without leaving the alpha keyboard.Up until this week, I rarely used an external keyboard with my iPad. Instead of those lengthy methods, simply keep your finger on the screen and slide it to the correct key. If you hit the wrong character, most people delete their mistake and retype or they use autocorrect. This one is probably the most useful trick if you mistype words a lot. Simply go to Settings -> General -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts to see the preset shortcuts and tap the “+” to add your own. These shortcuts are sure to save you time when typing. To enable this option simply go to Settings -> Messages and turn on Character Count. Sometimes it’s useful to see how many character you have typed. If it doesn’t work then go to Settings -> General -> Keyboard and turn the Auto Capitalization and “.” option on. Simply double tap the space bar at the end of a sentence and it will automatically add a period and capitalize the next letter.
This is the easiest way to increase your typing speed on the iPhone or iPad’s keyboard. Then simply press the globe icon on the keyboard to change languages. Add and use an international keyboardįor those of you who text in more than one language, you can simply go to Settings -> General -> Keyboard and add the keyboard of your desired language. Instead of tapping the “123” key to select the required punctuation mark and then pressing the “ABC” key to go back, you can press and hold the “123” key and a list of punctuation marks will be available which you can select and automatically return to the alpha keyboard. Either hold the keyboard key at the bottom right and tap split or use two fingers in the middle to split the keyboard into two. Two make two-handed typing easier, you can split the keyboard on you iPad. When entering a website that has a domain name other than “.com”, simply press and hold the “.com” key and a list of other domain names will be available to you. This will surely make texting with emoji’s a lot easier. To make it easier to use emoji’s simply go to Settings -> General -> Keyboard and activate the emoji keyboard. The add a little emotion to our plain texts. We all use emoji’s when talking to friends. A simple solution is to just shake your phone and a popup will ask you if you want to undo what you wrote.
Yes, you can hold down the backspace key to delete whatever you wrote, but if it’s a lengthy text then no one wants to hold down one key for that long. Simply go to Settings -> General -> Reset -> Reset Dictionary. The solution to this problem is simple, just reset the dictionary. It gets a little annoying when your dictionary becomes filled with nothing but jibberish that you don’t use.
