If you do excessive amounts of typing on your iOS device, then you may be able to benefit from a new free jailbreak tweak dubbed FastDeleteKey by iOS developer CydiaGeek.

Apple’s newest iPad —the 6th-generation 9.7”— follows in the footsteps of last year’s $329 iPad offering. It is an almost full-featured device, lacking in one area: it has no smart connector.

No fear, however, as iEGrow has two Bluetooth keyboard cases that offer a lot for a very reasonable price. We go hands-on in this mini review of the iEGrow F8S iPad keyboard case and the F180 iPad keyboard with rotatable cover.

KeyUtilities brings configurable keyboard commands to iOS

Most iPhone and iPad users merely use their keyboard for typing inside of their apps, but with a new jailbreak tweak called KeyUtilities by iOS developer AlexK, you can use your keyboard to do so much more.

Right out of the box, KeyUtilities feels reminiscent of desktop-class keyboard shortcuts. On the other hand, it provides a bevy of iOS-centric features that you might find useful whether you’re a novice or a power-user.
