Switch hardware keyboard layout shortcut?

Hi, what is the shortcut to switch between hardware keyboard layouts?

I would like to be able to toggle between regular English and English Dvorak keyboards on the IPad Pro. Right now I have to go into settings to manually switch this and it’s time consuming. Surely there’s a shortcut I don’t know?

iPad Pro, iPadOS 13

You can't switch between layouts for one language, but Control Space or the Globe key will let you switch between languages. So you could add another keyboard for a different variety of English to settings > general > keyboard > keyboards and then set its Hardware keyboard to the second layout you want.


The drawback is that spellcheck/autocorrect for the two versions of English may be different.
