Create keyboard shortcuts on your iPad

Hello everyone, here is a little tip to make your life easier while typing or texting on your iPad.


With iOS 5, a new feature (not very famous but really useful) called keyboard shortcut, allows you to type for instance "ttyl" to display Talk to you later.


To create your own shortcuts go to:


- Settings

- General

- Keyboard

- Shortcuts


From here you can create all the shortcuts you want, for instance "fb" for Facebook, now when you will start to type "fb" the iPad will show you the word "Facebook" and you'll just have to type send, or the space bar to put that word. It's the same when you mistype a word and the iPad corrects it.


Let me know, if it's a good help.


Regards,
