iOS soft keyboard disabled by bluetooth HID device
we are connecting a Zebra RFD8500 (RFID reader) via bluetooth to iOS devices and the device is locking out the onscreen keyboard in Chrome and Safari. anyone have a work around? is there a thrid party keyboard app that would work with Safari while the 'standard" keyboard is locked out?

no luck yet. trying to get just a standard browser (Safari, Chrome) to work. if you have a native app the keyboard isn't disabled. have a conversation going with zebra - they are trying to come up with a workaround too
OK. Keep us updated as we're curious what they tell you!

Give this a try to see if it has a setting that will prevent keyboard from being disabled, and let me know if you have any questions.
