Safari IPad OS15 safari/magic keyboard issue

Just updated to IPadOS 15 on my IPad Pro 12.9 M1.

Now in safari if I try to type a query in the address bar, if I type a space with the magic keyboard it does not create a space instead it opens up the side where I can see the tabs, private, bookmarks etc.

Does this on 2 different IPad Pro’s.

iPad Pro, iPadOS 15

It’s not hardware.

In the external keyboard description the Space bar activate the selected items.

And in the Safari search zone it does just that. Making it impossible to type a proper search.

That Keyboard function should not be activated in that specific area.


Software bug, not hardware. Does the same on 2 different IPad pros with 2 different magic keyboards

Hi Imac 27 I5,


We understand you're experiencing issues with using your Magic Keyboard with Safari on your iPad Pro. For this, we'd recommend double checking your keyboard settings here: Adjust the onscreen and external keyboard settings on iPad


However, if the behavior continues, you'll want to get in touch with Apple Support next via Get Support.


All the best.
