> Subject: 5 Helpful Safari Keyboard Shortcuts for iPad with iOS 7
>
> The latest versions of Safari in iOS support new keyboard shortcuts to help
> speed up web browsing and general web navigation for iPad and iPhone users
> that have external keyboards attached to their devices. Those who have
> memorized the keyboard shortcuts for Safari on the Mac will find these to be
> identical to their OS X functions, except they’re in the highly mobile iOS
> world.

> These will be primarily useful for an iPad with an external keyboard
> connected through Bluetooth or a keyboard case, but technically they’d work
> with an iPhone or iPod touch that has been connected to a secondary keyboard
> as well, if you happen to use a much smaller screened setup. Requirements are
> fairly straight forward, needing iOS 7.0 or later, and one must have a
> physical keyboard synced to the device for the keystrokes to be available, as
> the onscreen virtual keyboard does not (yet) offer this type of functionality.

> Command+L to go to the URL bar and go to a new location / site, or Search On
> Page*
> Command+T to open a new browser tab
> Command+W to close the currently active browser tab
> Command+R to refresh the contents of the currently active web browser tab
> Command+. (period) to stop loading the current tab
> * The Command+L keyboard shortcut goes to the URL bar, but is also used to
> perform a “Search on Page” like you would in new versions of Safari without a
> keyboard attached. It’s a little quirky to get used to, going a bit like
> this: hit Command+L to visit the Safari URL bar, then start typing the text
> to search and match on the currently active web page for, finding the matched
> results below everything else on the list, below all the other keyword
> matches, found under the “On This Page” section. Search On Page is incredibly
> helpful and widely used, and this could use some improvement in upcoming
> versions of iOS, whether you use an external keyboard or not.
>
> Of course, iOS keyboard shortcuts are not limited to Safari, and there are
> actually quite a few core iPad keyboard shortcuts and commands which cover
> everything from switching apps, navigating the iOS dock and multitasking
> screen, launching apps, using the Home button, and even moving around and
> selecting onscreen elements. Many users think of the iPad as a primarily
> consumption orientated device, but once you learn a few keyboard shortcuts
> and attach a wireless keyboard, it can function quite well for emailing, web
> browsing, writing, and many other tasks that don’t require a complete
> windowed desktop-centric computing experience. One preferred productivity
> trick I use is to set an iPad against something at eye level while standing,
> and use it to setup a quick standing desk workstation, which can not only aid
> productivity for many tasks, but is also much healthier than sitting
> constantly. Even if you only use such an iPad setup for selective web
> browsing or sending off quick emails, it’s a good start at not only bettering
> your health but also getting used to the iPad as a unique production
> environment.
>
> These new Safari keyboard shortcuts were discovered by MacStories, along with
> a handful of other handy keystrokes accessible with external keyboards when
> used with the iOS Pages app and Mail app, be sure to check those out on
> MacStories too.
