Yesterday I was working on my iPad at home. Stopped to do something, then when I went back to it I went to type something in an email and realised that I couldnt - the keyboard literally didn’t come up! Came out of ‘emails’ and back in and it came up. Tried this in WhatsApp, Messenger, FB, you name it, it does exactly the same for absolutely everything! The first time I go to type anything absolutely nothing happens - I’m just tapping keys for nothing, I have to come out of whatever it is, then go back in and then I can type. And yes I’ve had to do it for this too.

Firstly, have you tried rebooting the ipad - switch it off and back on?

There may be some help here;

Yep I’ve tried that. It’s so weird!
You tried all of them?
Have you ever had a Bluetooth keyboard connected? If so, it may have reconnected itself. Have a look at Bluetooth under settings to see. Are all your updates done.

No Ive not tried all of them, just trying last ones….. have had this iPad for several years and never had this before.
I couldn't get my keyboard back and had to go default then it came back
Try a soft reset. Hold the power button for around 10 secs. iPad will switch off and then back on.
