iPadOS 25.2.1: Magic Keyboard arrows not working in Books

Recent upgrade to iPadOS 25.2.1 left me with arrow keys on Apple Magic Keyboard for my iPad (3). Specifically, arrow keys do not work on the keyboard in Books to turn pages. Something of a mesa at night to read in bed when pages cannot be turned from the keyboard right my hands holding the device and Magic Keyboard.

I only updated my iPad because my iPhone automatically updated overnight (didn’t tell it to and wasn’t given a notification it was pending) and I wanted them to be at same iOS version


Any others encountered a similar problem with Magic Keyboard functionality with this release??

iPad Pro, iPadOS 26
