Your iPad can do so much—streaming shows and movies, playing music, serving as an ebook reader, handling video calls, and letting you create artwork and play games. Its lack of a solid typing space is the only thing missing.
Touch-screen keyboards do not lend themselves to long bouts of typing. So getting an external keyboard is the best thing for both you and your iPad. Whether you have an iPad, iPad mini, iPad Air, or iPad Pro, you can increase functionality with a keyboard, many of which have OS-specific keys.
Most iPad keyboards also function as cases, adding some protection. Having one can make your iPad feel like the world's most portable laptop.
We've found some great choices for you and your iPad and put them on this list. If you have a personal favorite that's not on this list, let us know in the comments.
