The on-screen keyboard enables you to enter data by tapping on the keyboard image. As you type, the on-screen keyboard sends the characters to type to the current application.
The letter, number, and symbol keys work just like a regular keyboard. When you tap a letter, number, or symbol, the keyboard sends that character to the current application. Other keys on the keyboard have special meanings.
