I recently got the lastest iPad Pro with Magic Keyboard and when I split the screen, calendar and note for exemple, the keyboard freezes: impossible to type. I tried a hard restart of the ipad, nothing changes. I must kill both apps and write in Note in single view only. I don’t know if it is a bug of iOS15 or a fixable problem… Any advise?
iPad Pro, iPadOS 15
Thanks for the greetings SnickZ!
I made the update to iOS 15.2 and the problem is totally solved!
The trouble is shot.
Thanks at lot!
Greetings Poldom65,
Apple Support Communities is a great place for help with using your Magic Keyboard and Split View on your iPad Pro. You’ve walked through great troubleshooting steps thus far by restarting your iPad, and confirming you’re running iPadOS 15. There have been several updates to iPadOS 15 since the initial release. Have you verified you're running the latest iPadOS 15 version? If not, you can find the steps to check for and perform available updates in the following article.
Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
In addition to confirming the iPadOS version, have you verified that you’ve tapped in the field you would like to type in within the desired application when using Split View? If not, try that step next to see if this helps isolate the issue.
There are some features and functions that may require use of the onscreen keyboard, and may not be supported via the Magic Keyboard. This information can be found in the Switch to the onscreen keyboard section of the following article.

Save your $$ on Magic Keyboard right now -- there are known issues in iOS15 freezing apps, crashing apps. Sorry, but its true. The magic in the keyboard is a bit too magical for iOS 15. iOS 15.1 certainly has the issue. This specific issue may be fixed in 15.2. But I have not confirmed. There are other m-keyboard and iPad issues still happening in iOS 15.2. Crossed fingers for 15.3 to fix them all...
