Writing right to left - bottom to top

Hi

This is more just a ‘for interest’ comment. I was writing an email and for some reason the writing went right to left (therefore the letters were back to front) and from bottom to top (what I wrote last was at the top). All very peculiar. Just wondering if anyone else had experienced this. I don’t know if I did something to make this occur, or if it was a random glitch. I tried to send the email to myself just to keep, but it wouldn’t send. All very peculiar! (Hint: It starts ‘Good Evening’ - at the bottom)

If that doesn't resolve the issue, does your iPad need updating? Do you have a recent backup for the data in your iPad in iCloud or your computer? If not, we recommend that you create one as described here: How to back up your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support


Then update your iPadOS as outlined here: Update your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


We hope this helps.


Cheers!
