But on the iPad, I don’t want to extend my finger all the way to the screen. I’m used to just swiping around with the trackpad on my Mac. Basic Text Selection And NavigationĮver since I’ve started using the iPad as a primary writing machine, I had the hardest time with navigating around a document. But I prefer the “Command” + “H” shortcut. So another way to go to the home screen is by tapping “Command” + “Shift” + “Tab”. If you’re using iOS 10, you’ll find a “Home screen” shortcut at the end of the app switcher. Want to quickly go to the home screen? Just press the “Command” + “H” keyboard shortcut. If you want to move to the previous app, hold “Command” and “Shift” while pressing the “Tab” key to move between apps. Once the app switcher is up, press the “Tab” button while holding the “Command” key to move to the next app. Just like on your Mac, press the keyboard shortcut “Command” + “Tab” to bring up the app switcher.

If you’re going to use the external keyboard, get used to searching for apps (or files inside apps) directly from Spotlight.
