The built-in iOS keyboard offers a variety of time-saving gestures and key combinations. For instance, on iPad with an external keyboard, pressing Command+H returns to the Home Screen, and Command+Space Bar typically launches Spotlight Search. These actions streamline navigation and text manipulation. They are also available with software or hardware keyboards.
These efficiency boosters enhance productivity on Apple mobile devices. By reducing the need to tap the screen repeatedly, users can complete tasks more quickly and accurately. The implementation reflects Apple’s longstanding commitment to user-friendly design, aimed at increasing user satisfaction and operational speed within its ecosystem.
