How can I return along the text line because I forgot to type in a word?


And as I am brand new, a newbie iPad user, I have not got to 'grips' as to where I can type in my articles.

Can you please help me.

If you have a bluetooth keyboard you can use the arrow keys to navigate back up to where you need to be. Otherwise, use your finger to touch where you want the word to be.That gets the curser up there...may take some practice to get it right where you want it.

when you're done you can tap at the bottom of your article and get the curser back at the end.

Don't. I've been using an iPad for over two years now, and still get frustrated with the typing sometimes. Doesn't help that I switch daily between it, and MacBookPro and a Lenovo ThinkPad (it's the employer's, not mine). Constantly catch myself trying to two finger click on the Lenovo. Very entertaining to some of my younger co workers, I'm sure. 😁
