The iPhone/iPad can use the Bluetooth keyboard as an input device.The software keyboard is restricted to the screen size, but there are many options for Bluetooth keyboards that are independent as hardware.You can choose a key pitch/key stroke that you can use easy to use, and there are various sizes and designs.If you have many opportunities to enter long sentences, you should consider introducing a Bluetooth keyboard.
There is also a function unique to the hardware keyboard.The iOS software keyboard does not support the "key repeat" that continues to press the key and continuously inputs the same character, but if you use the Bluetooth keyboard, the large amount of space is inserted and there is no continuous deletion.In addition, the software keyboard is automatically disabled while the Bluetooth keyboard is connected, so the screen has the advantage of using it widely.
In iOS 9, the customization function is also enhanced.If you open the screen in the order of "Settings" → "Accessibility" → "Keyboard", you should see three items, "Key Repeat", "Complex Key", and "Slow Key".Each item can switch on/off, and you can adjust the delicate timing to the reaction.
In "Key Repeat", the repeat interval of the key (interval where the key is input the key to be pressed), and the time it is recognized as repeat input is 0..Can be set in 01 seconds.In the "Combined Key", you can select a setting that can be pressed by pressing the modification key such as the option key or Control key.In "Slow Key", you can adjust the time from pressing the key to being recognized.
You can adjust it as a preference so that it is easy to use, but in the initial value, the key repeat is set slightly dull, so the time until repeat input recognition (the initial value is 0..It is good to shorten 40 seconds).Similarly, if the movement of the cursor keys feels slow, let's shorten the repeat interval of the key.
