I just added the below to my word document for iOS keyboard commands on my web 
site:


iPad Keyboard Commands 


Here are some iPad keyboard commands from Apple that I just found. Published 
Date: October 13, 2023

*note, on a Windows keyboard, command is the alt key.

• Command+Space: Open search.

 

• Command+Left/Right: Switch to the previous or next app.

 

To see a list of shortcuts that you can use with an app, press and hold the 
Command ? key when you use the app or on the Home Screen.

* I am not finding any real equivalent to the Globe key on a non-Apple keyboard.

 

• Command-H: Go to the Home Screen.

 

• Command-Space bar: Show or hide the Search field.

 

• Command-Tab: Switch to the next most recently used app among your open apps.

 

• Command-Shift-3: Take a screenshot.

 

• Command-Shift-4: Take a screenshot and immediately open Markup to view or 
edit it.

 

• Command-Option-D: Show or hide the Dock.  * I could not get this to work on 
my Logitech Ergonomic keyboard that is supposed to be for Windows or iOS/Mac.

 

* I've not tried the following, but if you really need to work on customized 
keyboard commands, it may be worth a try with VoiceOver.  These commands are 
not VoiceOver specific.


Customize keyboard shortcuts


Open Settings, then tap Accessibility.

Tap Keyboards.

Tap Full Keyboard Access and turn it on.

Tap Commands.

Tap a command, then press a custom key combination to assign to it.

Tap Done.

Hey Richard and others I have one quick thing I would like to say and that is 
if I got the Apple Magic Keyboard with my iPad or for my iPad it seems like all 
the keys on the keyboard should work with my iPad I guess if not, maybe that 
something I have to take up with Apple Accessibility.

Michael and others,

Forget what I said.

The FN key is not the same as the globe key from my quick testing on my iPad.

None of the commands specifically for the iPad work for me using the FN key.

One source from a few years ago talked about modifying the key on a non Apple 
keyboard, but that setting was not where it said it would be, so I don’t know.

Some commands using FN that say FN work fine.

But Apple must have created a whole new Key that is unique to their keyboards.  
Typical.

I got a hold of an apple Magic Keyboard for the iPad I inherited from my 
deceased sister. So I guess where the function key would be on a regular 
keyboard it would be the globe key on the Apple Magic Keyboard? I have the iPad 
that happens to have the folio case on yet. I just wanted to have a Bluetooth 
keyboard to work with it and I ended up getting the Apple Magic Keyboard 
because that was the one that was being sold while I was at the time.

The keyboard commands are mostly the same no matter the iOS device.

I need to find the couple unique to iPads due to the split-view things you can 
do with having two apps open side by side, which I thought were in the list on 
my web site, but I’m not finding them.

If you find instructions that talk about the Globe key, as far as I can tell, 
that is the FN key on a regular keyboard, but Apple gave it a globe icon on 
their “magic” keyboards…

Subject: Keyboard Commands

 

I’m curious about keyboard shortcut keys on iOS. I read a post somewhere on 
AppleVis where the person was talking about using things like Command + N to 
send a new message on her iPad Pro using a Magic keyboard. These keyboard 
shortcut keys, are they a function of the iPad Pro, or the Magic keyboard, or 
are they commands one can use across iOS? I’m really interested in using this 
sort of functionality with my iPhone and Bluetooth keyboard, but I’ve not found 
anything outside of the standard Voiceover keyboard commands.

 

Thank you kindly for any tips,

 

Joe
