Title: Ipad typing
Post by: garrardrj on April 17, 2016, 10:51:59 am: How many people have the same issue as me when typing and what or how do you get round having to keep back tracking and correcting your typing.
1. Hitting the capital key when typing the letter A .... Getting something like this gRage (Garage)
2. Hitting the space bar when tpying a letter from the bottom row , like this ...i a thi ki g of repla i g my d alve ....( i am thinking of replacing my dv valve)
3. etc

I have bought one of those pen things , but typing takes ages !

Post by: mb on April 18, 2016, 11:35:45 am: I normally end up hitting b or v instead of the space bar. Another thing that happens is I press buttons as I'm scrolling which is why I managed to thank everyone for their posts in this thread! The amount of things I've liked on Facebook and friend requests sent by me doing this!

I've only ever used a Logitech keyboard with the Ipdad - could never imagine tapping on the screen! Keyboard doubles up as a handy stand (to watch vids) and protective cover.

I installed swiftkey on my android phone and its' prediction and performance is much improved over the standard HTC keyboard.

Swiftkey is ok on the iPad. Can't beat a proper keyboard though. I've got an iPad Pro and might invest in the official Apple one at some point.
