How do you type special characters with this keyboard, such as ō, œ, ã, etc?
The only way I have found so far to do this is to deactivate the keyboard by lifting up the iPad. Without the keyboard these letters can be accessed by holding the key down, but holding down the key doesn’t do anything with the keyboard.

Best Answer:YES! I just switched from a first-generation 12.9" iPad Pro to a 10.5" iPad Pro. I was curious as well. In fact, I'm writing this answer on my new iPad Pro 10.5" using my old 12.9" Smart Keyboard. It absolutely connects and works.

AnswerYes it can! I use this keyboard with Dvorak mode all the time.

does the smart keyboard accommodate the microphone feature for dictation?

- Flag as inappropriate (does the smart keyboard accommodate the microphone feature for dictation?)
Best Answer:Even though several reviews say it does not, it most certainly does. When you are typing at the bottom of the screen on the right side, there is a down arrow, hold it down and the on screen keyboard pops up, and lets you use the voice dictation.

I have the keyboard which folds up to protect the front of the IPad Pro, is there a way of covering the back of the iPad Pro 12.9”?

Best Answer:The Smart Keyboard will only protect the front. The Apple Smart Cover will cover both sides, but doesn't sport a keyboard. I bought a sleeve that will hold the iPad + Smart Keyboard and protect the whole device.
