Use Smart Keyboard and Smart Keyboard Folio with iPad
Use Smart Keyboard or Smart Keyboard Folio to hold your iPad in just the right position—for typing, watching movies, drawing, and more. Attach the keyboard to the Smart Connector on the side (models with a Home Button) or bottom (models with Face ID).
Note: iPad Air (3rd generation) also works with Smart Keyboard, but not Smart Keyboard Folio.
Quickly switch between apps
Press and hold the Command key, then press Tab until you reach the app you want to open.
View keyboard shortcuts
Press and hold the Command key to see shortcuts for an app.
Open Search
Press Command-Space.
Switch keyboard layouts
Use Smart Keyboard or Smart Keyboard Folio to switch between keyboard layouts—English, Emoji, and any keyboards you’ve added for typing in different languages, for example.
Press and hold Shift-Control, then press the Space bar until you reach the language you want to use.
