Flick Down for Special Characters

iOS 11 makes typing alternative characters more efficient, by allowing

you to “flick” down on a key to type an alternate character instead of

having to cycle through keyboard layouts.

Look at each keyboard key. Tapping the key will insert the black

character. Most keys also display a gray character. To type these, flick

down on the key instead of merely tapping it. Think of it like flicking

down a light switch.

If you flick slowly, you’ll notice the key rotating down and becoming

the key you’re typing (Figure 50).

Figure 50: As I flick down on the Q key, it types a 1—observe the

upper-left corner.

Split the iPad Keyboard

The standard iPad keyboard is fine if you’re resting the iPad in your

lap, but if you’re holding the iPad in your hands and need to type with

your thumbs, it can be impossible to reach the middle keys.

Thankfully, iOS lets you split the onscreen keyboard so you can type

with your thumbs:

• Touch and hold the Hide Keyboard

key, and then choose Split

(Figure 51).
