You can perform searches and use text replacements from anywhere on iPhone without taking your hands away from Magic Keyboard. You can open Search with a shortcut, and set up text replacements, so typing “omw” enters “On my way.” You can also change the actions that are performed by the Command key, and choose additional accessibility keyboard shortcuts.
-
Open Search: Press Command-Space.
Note: You can change the actions that are performed by the Command key (and other modifier keys like Caps Lock). Go to Settings > General > Keyboard > Hardware Keyboard, tap Modifier Keys, tap a key, then choose the action you want it to perform.
- Use text replacements: You can set up text replacements that enter words or phrases after you type just a few characters. For example, type “omw” to enter “On my way!”
- Choose additional accessibility keyboard shortcuts: Go to Settings > Accessibility > Keyboards > Full Keyboard Access, then turn on Full Keyboard Access.
