Might be an IOS issue - have had no problems using my Galaxy Tab or my Galaxy Phone.

my issue is can't open the thin bar next to my name to type into, no keyboard displayed.

It's definitely user error on my part!

Tried browsing this forum on a simulated older iPad Pro, and based on what you are describing Tom I wonder if you've stumbled upon the same minor accessibility quirk/bug that I did.

 

Which is that if you tap on the slim text box to start a reply, it expands it into a larger text area for convenience but does not bring up the keyboard for you right away.

 

Seems like you gotta tap into it a second time after it expands to bring up your tablet's software-based keyboard.

 

Could that be it?

It’s my old iPad doesn’t upgrade anymore.. using my iPhone without any issues. Time for a new iPad.

Thanks to everyone who gave me good advice.

Tom
