Suddenly appears cursor on a keyboard, cant type certain letters

Im using logitech k380 with ios 13.4.1

I cant type the word “i”, “m”, “k”, “l” without messing up my screen such as : a cursor suddenly appears when it was just a keyboard... I could “drag” the mouse by the arrow.


It really makes me frustrated.

Helpful answers please ?

Hello,


This is due to you enabling the feature Mouse Keys in AssistiveTouch. As it states, this feature should only be used if you intend to move the pointer cursor with certain keys on a keyboard instead of a physical mouse.

It is worth noting that with iPadOS 13.4 you no longer need to enable AssistiveTouch to use a pointing device with your iPad.
