I jsut got a bluetooth apple keyboard but how can I program buttons on the keyboard to open apps, or to scroll from field to field when you are in an internet browser. I do not have an apple computer to program the keys besides my ipad.
iPad
There is no way to program the keys. The Tab key will usually jump from field to field.
Given there is no cursor, you need to touch the screen to move around. Arrow keys etc will move you areound within a text box, but to move from field to field, and scoll requires your finger. (i hope they evolve to a better solution at some point). Having to return tonthe screen for basic navigation takes some ofmthe fun out of a bluetooth keyboard, but that's the way it is
I just read a nice article on the web that explains how you can use accessibility in your favor for what you want to acheive. Simply search a bit using accessibility ios bluetooth keyboard and you will get to it.
Basically, it requires a little getting use to it but it permits you navigate a web page without having to tap the screen. Simply using some shortcuts via keyboard combinaision.
Cheers,
It's not easy. I fopund it almost counter intuitive.
