Magic Key Board with an iPad Pro with all the special characters mixed up

I am not able to use correctly The Magic Key Board because all the special Characters are out of the position indicated in the kees. I do not know where most of those characters are located, impossible to use... very annoying I have a call with Apple to see if something is wrong with the configuration, which is supposed to be correct, but hopefully, something is out of tune, because this device like that is useless...

iPad Pro, 11-inch, 4th Gen, Wi-Fi

You just have the wrong keyboard mapping in your settings.


First go to settings > general > keyboard > keyboards and make sure you have only one language on the list there, remove any extras.


Then go to settings > general > keyboard > hardware keyboard and tap over at the right edge. Make sure that you have the name of your keyboard checked.


It's always a good idea to tell people what language your keyboard is, because there are large number of them with keys printed differently.
