Magic keyboard won’t let me use control/tab for switching between apps

** And of course as soon as I posted this, I realized my tab key felt odd and uneven, and after some jiggling it’s fine. So, never mind!😂

Suddenly - starting last night - I can’t switch between apps with control/tab on my Magic Keyboard. I’ve restarted my ipad and have the most current update. Has anyone else had this issue? I am wondering if I somehow disabled it without realizing. When I’m in chrome, I get a list of control key options. When I’m in other apps I get nothing.

Never mind!!!! Just realized my tab key was wonky and uneven, and a little pressing fixed the problem.

Hi edna million, thank you for posting in Apple Support Communities.

This was mentioned in a previous discussion and for the four users that experienced this issue including the CMD H not working as well they did the following:

Remove the Keyboard from the iPad Pro.
Restart your iPad Pro.
Reconnect the Keyboard.

However, if this does not resolve your issue please contact Apple Support.

You can do this as follows:

Online:--> Genius Bar Reservation and Apple Support Options - Apple;
Contacting a local Apple Store or AASP among the list provided above but also again as follows Apple – Location Selector; or
Using the "Apple Support" app, available and downloadable from App Store.
