How to make your iPad keyboard smaller
If you find yourself accidentally typing on the small keyboard that appears on your iPad’s screen, there is a way to make it go away. Just follow these simple steps:
1. Tap and hold on to the keyboard icon in the screen’s lower right-hand corner.
2. Select the Keyboard Settings option from the menu that appears.
3. Tap on the Keyboard Size button.
4. Choose either Small or Mini from the two options that appear.
5. Exit the Settings app and enjoy your newly sized keyboard!
You can always change the size of your keyboard back at any time.
How to get a bigger keyboard on your iPad
If you find the onscreen keyboard on your iPad to be too small, there are a couple of things you can do to make it larger. First, go to Settings > General > Keyboard and turn on the “Split Keyboard” option. This will split the keyboard in half so that each side is bigger.
You can also use an external iPad 10 keyboard. This can be a Bluetooth keyboard or connect directly to the iPad’s Lightning port. An external keyboard will give you a much larger typing area than the onscreen keyboard.
Finally, you can use a third-party keyboard app like SwiftKey or Gboard. These apps offer larger keyboards that are optimized for typing on an iPad.
How to use an external keyboard with your iPad
iPads are great for on-the-go computing, but sometimes you need more power than what the built-in keyboard can provide. That’s where an external keyboard comes in handy.
Most external iPad keyboards will connect via Bluetooth, so you must ensure your keyboard is paired with your iPad before using it. Once it’s paired, open up any app you want to type in and start typing away – your iPad will automatically switch to the external keyboard as soon as you start typing.
If you’re unsure how to pair your particular keyboard with your iPad, consult the instructions with the keyboard or check out the manufacturer’s website for more information.
Conclusion
Getting rid of the small keyboard on your iPad is a relatively simple process. You only need to download a third-party keyboard app from the App Store or configure an external Bluetooth keyboard with your device. Either way, you’ll get back the full functionality that comes with having an onscreen QWERTY layout and typing more comfortably without being limited by the size of the built-in iPad keyboard. Once done, you can enjoy using your iPad even better than before!
