Turn magic keyboard off so child doesn’t press buttons.

Hi there cathryn65,

If you are trying to disable the keyboard while your daughter watches a film, we would recommend enabling Guided Access. 

Guided Access limits your device to a single app and lets you control which features are available. You can turn on Guided Access when you let a child use your device, or when accidental gestures might distract you.

This information as well as how to set up this feature is located here: 

Use Guided Access with iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch

We hope that helps!

cathryn65,

Thanks for following up. There are no other options to disable the keyboard on the iPad. If this is a feature you'd like to see in the future, we encourage you to leave feedback below:

Have a nice day!
