Kelsey, seriously, call apple accessibility. They really do go out of their way
to help figure out what's going on.

Hi David,
I will check the Bluetooth, but I'm not sure what that has to do with the
missing keyboard. I've had this issue ever since I updated to IOS 11. What's
strange is it will show the keyboard when I need to enter my passcode, just
not in any other text field. Even if the keyboard did come up, I probably
still
would not be able to get my password entered because I am terrible at touch
typing on the iPhone.

you considered a restart of your iPad? I only use an iPhone and don't
own an iPad so this isn't something I've seen but I haven't
encountered it globally using an iPad Mini at work.e

This keyboard issue is global, meaning it affects almost any app where
a text field appears.

Kelsey,
I know you mentioned that you have no Bluetooth devices paired to your
iPad but I'm wondering if Bluetooth is enabled? If it is, does the
edit field appear if you disable Bluetooth?
Also, which app are you not seeing edit fields?

I would use the onscreen keyboard, but my typing skills are not good at all.
Plus, for some odd reason, the onscreen keyboard isn’t showing up in
edit fields on my iPad even though I have no Bluetooth keyboard paired.

This is true. Most protected fields for entering passwords don't speak
the key after it has been entered. However, when I use the standard
on-screen keyboard I at least hear the letter that my finger is
pointing to before I enter it, which certainly helps to confirm that
you're about to enter the correct character.

Hi,
My guess is that because many password fields are secured (that is you
hear only clicks when the letters are entered), there may not be any
way to hear the braille characters as you enter them. What about using
a Bluetooth keyboard to enter the password?
I know this isn't the answer you wanted, but if there is another way
to hear letters as you enter them I don't know it.

Hello, I am having a bit of an issue with using Braille screen input
on an iPad.
Voiceover is not speaking the characters when I am in a password field
which makes entering passwords very difficult. I have a situation
where I need to uninstall the Zoom app and reinstall it, but if I
can’t use Braille screen input, I can’t enter my credentials. The
onscreen keyboard is too difficult for me to use. Does anyone have any
suggestions on how I can get Voiceover to speak the characters I am
typing in a password field using Braille screen input?
If I
am using my Braille display, Voiceover does speak the characters I am
typing, but not when using Braille screen input. I’m using eight dot
computer Braille as my input. Any suggestions would be greatly
appreciated.
Kind Regards,
