How to get this clear style keyboard? I somehow glitched my way into it, but can't seem to replicate it lol.

But you cannot type anything on home screen anyway. And only in lock screen can you see it and use it.

On iPad in Swift Playgrounds, you can tap on byte and it will warp to a place where you can change to a different character.

On iPhone this is extremely hard because the page scrolls to the bottom during editing.

Swift Playgrounds seems like it's only on newer iPads. My 12.9" Pro it came pre installed when installing the iOS 10 Developer Preview 1. But my iPad 4 did not. Haven't gotten around to diving into it yet.

Anyone know what the Rest and Type keyboard for iPad is?

Also, another "little thing" is that putting Messages on the iPhone into landscape now gives you handwriting instead of a keyboard - which sucks.

Edit: I apologize for the double post.

I'm curious about the rest and type keyboard thing too.

As for the handwriting thing, it's optional in either orientation-not sure where you get the idea it's "instead of a keyboard "

There is a keyboard button there, but it does nothing for me when I tap it.
Try a reset. The button works for me but I just had to reset my iPad because it wouldn't change orientation. The point is you're going to see bugs in an early dev beta. Big bugs, little bugs, random bugs, reproducible bugs. It's going to be "fun" for a while.

Are you supposed to be able to write in portrait mode too? I see no option to do it, only when I rotate to landscape does it change to full screen handwriting mode and the button for keyboard doesn't work, neither can I exit the handwriting unless I push done multiple times and then I normally get a lock up! Definitely a bug going on which will probably be fixed very soon.

I see a button with a pencil and a squiggle in either orientation and it brings up a(non fullscreen) box to write in.

I fully understand it's a beta, and have no problem with things not working......I was just pointing out that it wasn't working for me. :)

My device has been reset many times since I dropped the beta on it, but that keyboard button has yet to work for me.

Can you limit, arrange or otherwise manage the available apps in split view? Slide over or whatever it's called?

Nothing's changed in this beta for the split view selection slide in from the right thingy so, no, unfortunately.

I know that the parking widget thing is linked up to the Bluetooth but can anyone tell me if it works when you have just like a Bluetooth speaker phone in your car because your car is too old to actually pair to anything? LOL Will it drop the pin when you Turn your Bluetooth speakerphone off or does it only work with newer cars that you can actually pair your phone to?

hi everyone,
would it be possible to make a list of ios10 functions by device like it was done for ios9?
i would like to know specifically what users of ip5/5s/6/6s will get (same thing for ipads).

It could certainly be done, but it's really too early for that. For instance, many of the 3D Touch features are supposed to be coming to other devices in future Betas, but we wont know which until the updates. Realistically, beta 3-4 should give you a better idea of which features will hit which phones.
