That is very unusual, there being not that much difference (especially if your iPad allows for mobile data connections) between the iOS of an iPad and that of an iPhone, but we guess the reason is, this time, but unusually, regarding an iPhone&#8217;s &#8220;lack of real estate&#8221; compared to the iPad.<\/p>\n<p>Our research led us to scrutinize your iPad (device) keyboard layout versus the iPhone one.
