Developer Steve Troughton-Smith exposed the larger keyboard format while examining the iOS 9 software development kit. The outline is parallel to the usual keyboard, with keys for tab, caps lock and punctuations on the key screen. The keyboard has it on top for number keys. In view of this, reports say that Apple is holding the production of the larger iPad.
It is reported in the Apple Insider that Apple is working on a wider iPad generally mentioned as the iPad Pro. Apparently, iOS 9 contains a larger iPad keyboard, backing up a shortcut bar, Tab and Caps Lock keys, plus a broad additional row for characters like exclamation marks and parentheses. A developer, Troughton-Smith posted on Twitter, "Also new in iOS 9 - UIKeyboard seems to scale to a much larger heretofore unseen iPad screen size #ipadproconfirmed"
According to a report from Bloomberg, Apple is delaying the fabrication of the larger iPad up until September. The 12.9-inch tablet was initially scheduled to start developing this quarter, but adjournments in the display panel supply mandate some changes in plans.
Be that as it may, the bigger screen tablet is part of Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook's determination to revive the iPad line since the sales have deteriorated for four quarters. Furthermore, iPads are roughcasting struggle with huge screen iPhones which were announced in September and facilitated Apple to bring profit in the most recent quarter. Indicated on Tech Radar, Apple, with main office in California, presently offers the iPad in a 9.7-inch display and the iPad mini with a 7.9-inch screen. If the manufacturing of iPad will start now, it would apparently set Apple up for its traditional year-end iPad release.
The overture of bigger iPhones, iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus to be exact are not alleviating iPad as its sales went down. The iPad Pro probably is targeting the business users and will give its tablet the blow it needs to draw near the iPhone.
