Did you know that there are hidden keys if you use the iPad's split keyboard? Here's how to use them to make your typing faster and easier.

1. If you use the split keyboard on your iPad, you will find the following hidden keys:

Y, H, B, T, G

These keys are located right next to the last keys on the left side of the keyboard and before the keys begin on the right side.

For example, on the left you will find Y after the T, H after the G, B after the V. On the right you will find T before the Y, G before the H, and V before the B. This has the potential to make your typing faster since you can use the keys on either side.
