I bought myself one of the Logitech iPad keyboard covers, which are well reviewed and looks like could be useful when I travel. Well, in fact I wrote an episode of my upcoming project The Human Division on the iPad (roughly 10,500 words), so here’s an update.įirst, some technical notes: for this thing I used my newly purchased iPad (the 2012 iteration), the Apple keyboard that came with my Mac Mini (it has a bluetooth connection) and a cheap plastic plate stand we had lying around the house. Hopefully that was clear enough to follow, but let me know if you require any clarification.Earlier in the week I mentioned I was trying out writing on my iPad, using a bluetooth connected keyboard, and some of you were wondering how that had worked out for me - if indeed it worked out at all.

I bought Texpad for the iPad and absolutely love the UI and how well it works. iCloud to make this happen, I’m totally fine with doing so. Ideally, I’d be able to do that from the iPad as well so I don’t have to worry about inconsistencies. tex files and such are stored in Google Drive as I work on them from home and from my office and it’s great to have the files automatically sync across devices.
