Enable Caps Lock and lock the Shift Key on the iPad
Learn how to enable Caps Lock and lock the Shift Key to type in all uppercase on the iPad.
Did you know you could lock the shift key on the iPad to type in all upper-case? You first need to make sure this feature is enabled, you do this through the settings app. Once it is enable, to type in all uppercase, you tap on the shift key twice. Once you do that, everything you type will be in uppercase. Tap on the soft key again to unlock it. See how to use caps lock on the iPad in this video.
Video Transcript (video also has closed captions):
In this video, we will look at how we can enable capsule lock on the iPad. Let’s go to my iPad.
Now you most likely know when you start typing a new sentence on the iPad, the first letter will be capitalized. And then every letter beyond that is going to be in lower case. What do you do when you want to have everything in upper case? How do you lock our caps? So when we’re typing, everything is an upper case?
Well, the first thing we need to do is we need to make sure that this is enabled on the iPad. To do that, we go over to our Settings app. From here, what we need to do is go over to General. Under General, we have Keyboard. When we’re looking at our Keyboard Settings, we have one option here for Enable Caps Lock. We want to make sure that this is turned on. When it is turned on, we’re able to lock the caps key.
So how do we do that? Well, let’s go and open up a new note. I tap on the Notes app, and now I’m going to create a new note. When I start typing, by default, what it’s going to do is capitalize the first letter. And then every letter beyond that is going to be in lower case until I hit a period. So I type in here D. We can see that it is capitalized. And then I type an a; it is no longer capitalized.
I want to capitalize everything that I type. Well, to do that, all we have to do is just double tap on the shift key. When I double tap on it, you’re going to see a little line underneath the arrow. So I double tap on this, we can see we have a little line indicating that caps lock is now on. Everything that I type is going to be an upper case. So let’s just type my name here, and we can see it as an upper case.
To turn caps lock off, all we have to do is just tap on this again, and it brings us back to our normal state. When I type a new sentence, the first letter is going to be capitalized. And then after that, it’s going to be all lowercase until I type a period. In order to turn on caps lock again, I just double tap on it. We have the little line below the arrow. Now, anything that I type is going to be all in upper case.
So that’s how we enable caps lock on the iPad. We first have to make sure that this has turned on. You do this through the Settings app under General and then go to Keyboard. Once it is turned on, to lock your caps or to lock your shift key to type in all caps, all you do is just double tap on the shift key. You’ll see a little line under it, and anything that you type will be capitalized. Tap on the shift key to turn it back off.
So that’s how we enable cap Slack on the iPad.
