An on-screen keyboard can be opened by the user with a double tap on an input
field. The kind of keyboard displayed is determined by what type of input field is
recognized. For example, a field in which only numbers are recognized would use
the numeric keyboard. The user can also open a keyboard from the corrector
pop-up list, which appears when you correct a recognized word.
