Hello Onlygirl2,


This article explains the iPhone keyboard and what keys are found there: Type with the onscreen keyboard on iPhone - Apple Support. For the location where the semicolon should be, you can follow the guidance on that page: "Enter numbers, punctuation, or symbols: Tap 123 or # + =."


If that is not working as expected, we advise that you make sure the iPhone is up to date, close the affected apps you are typing in then reopen them, and make sure all apps are updated.



Update your iPhone or iPad

“1. Back up your device using iCloud or your computer.

2. Plug your device into power and connect to the internet with Wi-Fi.

3. Go to Settings > General, then tap Software Update.

4. If you see more than one software update option available, choose the one that you want to install.

5. Tap Install Now. If you see Download and Install instead, tap it to download the update, enter your passcode, then tap Install Now."


Close an app on your iPhone or iPod touch

“1. From the Home Screen, swipe up from the bottom of the screen and pause in the middle of the screen.

2. Swipe right or left to find the app that you want to close. 

3. Swipe up on the app's preview to close the app."


How to manually update apps on your Apple device

“1. Open the App Store.

2. Tap your profile icon at the top of the screen.

3. Scroll to see pending updates and release notes. Tap Update next to an app to update only that app, or tap Update All."



We hope this helps. Let us know if we can assist with anything else at all. Take care.
