Sorry, not possible.


The on-screen keyboard layout is determined by your chosen keyboard language and the specific model of iPad. Different iPad models have modified keyboard layouts - seemingly optimised for the screen size. As such, the key layout cannot be modified to match different iPad models.

Install a 3rd party keyboard from the iOS App Store.

The onr I think IS and strongly recommend as a great third party onscreen keyboard is Typefinity.

This is as a good, full featured, fully functional/accessibile, virtual onscreen virtual keyboard can get!


This keyboard is worth its one-time payment price!



Best of Luck to You!
