I just upgraded to iOS/iPadOS 26 and discovered that a soft keyboard shortcut has disappeared. It’s where you hold down the “.” key and options for URL suffix quick fills pop up (.com, .net, and a few others) when using Safari and other web related apps.
Any suggestions on how to restore this?
I just discovered this on an Apple AI prompt to my question. The “.com” is still working on iPhone OS26, but on iPad OS26 is not on the full size or the split keyboards. If you make the keyboard a mini floating one by squeezing it, the “.com” will work when you tap the period key.

Postscript: double checked the feature - seems to be working on iOS (phone), but not on iPadOS.
