3rd party bluetooth keyboard not working properly on iPad Air2

I just recently noticed that the space bar on my bluetooth keyboard from 3rd party is not giving me the space after a word on some Apps on my iPad Air2. It is not working properly on MSWord, the search area on Safari, however, it works fine in Notes and email message. I am not sure if this started to happen after I updated to iOS15 or even at iOS14. Most likely on the later updates as before is working correctly.

Anybody has the same experience? Anybody know how to fix it?

Hi there Eddy K.,

Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities. We understand you're having issues with your third-party keyboard not working as expected, and we'd be happy to get you pointed in the right direction.

To get started, can you let us know which Bluetooth keyboard you're working with?

Are you only having issues with the keyboard when paired with your iPad Air, or does this issue persist with other devices as well? Does restarting your iPad seem to help with the issue, even if it's just temporary?

Let's also ensure that your iPad is currently updated to the most recent iPadOS version, as iPadOS 15.0.2 was just released earlier today: Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

We look forward to hearing back from you.

Have a great day!
