Ghost Keyboard - iPad Pro (2018)

Hi,

I’m using a 3 week old iPad Pro gen 3 (2018) 12.9 with Smart Folio Keyboard. Every now and agin when the iPad’s not in using the Folio Keyboard (eg. I have just folded it under or disconnected it) I get a ghost keyboard on screen as per the photo. This translucent keyboard can effect selecting items in that part of the screen and sometimes doesn’t go away until iPad is restarted.

Example below.

Any advice would be appreciated, as otherwise I’m loving the device.

Ghost keyboard iPhone X Hi I have an iPhoneX bought from an official AppleStore in Bulgaria. The problem is that I experience having a “ghost” (or better say) a transparent keyboard which I see using any app on my phone (while my real keyboard is not being used) I am seeing this transparent keyboard ghost thing even now over my actual keyboard while I am typing this message. As I said, I see it in every app, on my home screen and even on my locked screen. It has been like that for over a year now. I suppose this is a burnt out display or something like that. I haven’t used any alternative keyboards neither have I dropped my phone or done anything like that to it. My display is safe and doesn’t have any damages thanks to screen protector. I live in Bulgaria and would like to know if there is a chance to change my phone or its screen here? Thank you I

iPad keyboard is appearing at the top or centre of the screen This is regarding iPadOS 14.6. For no apparent reason, the keyboard on my iPad has begun appearing sometimes at the top of the screen and sometimes in the middle, but never at the bottom where It normally appears. I tried turning the iPad off and then restarting but that made no difference. Can anyone suggest what might be wrong? Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

Blue Box around screen and/or Text Field Hi, I’ve enclosed a photo of a blue box that randomly appears usually in conjunction with pressing the Space Bar on an external keyboard. It happened after the last iOS upgrade and thought it was associated with Accessibility, but even after turn off all the Accessibility features it still randomly appears from time to time. Any suggestions on what could be the cause of the mysterious Blue Box? Thanks in advance for your suggestions and help.
