My keyboard won’t appear so I can type anything on my IPad.

I rebooted to no avail. Impossible to type anything into any field. Won’t pop up. Any ideas?

Are you connected to any other keyboard via Bluetooth? To find out, switch off Bluetooth, force restart the iPad and see if your built in keyboard comes up.
