deactivate auto onscreen keyboard issue. this is an reply rather than a question. i could not type on my "physical" keyboard and i could not turn off the on screen keyboard. i saw a response somewhere that pointed out there are three dots on the back of the ipad which align with three small pins on the case that includes the physical keyboard. i cleaned both surfaces and made sure the points were firmly connected and accurately aligned and it now works!

How to prevent on-screen keyboard from appearing on iPad mini while connecting external keyboard? I’ve checked accessibility settings and everything else I can find to try, but the onscreen keyboard keeps popping up while I’m in the middle of typing with my Bluetooth connected keyboard. I can’t find a setting to stop it. How do I disable the on screen keyboard so it stops interfering with my connected keyboard?

Stickey Keys is not working on my iPhone 15 I love sticky keys I used it all the time I loooooooooooved it ! Not working on my new iPhone 15. I want sticky keys to function. To repeat a letter , to delete characters in previous kind, to type a hyphen multiple times to draw a line. So many great uses for repetition of a letter without having to tap that letter over and over. Please tell me how to make it work. I have sticky keys to on position in keyboard settings. But doesn’t work! Grrrrrrrrrr! I had to hit r 8 times. I want to hold it down and it would repeat that letter. Thank you. [Re-Titled by Moderator]
