Typing on iPad?

I'm trying to Edit my app via safari on my iPad, but I'm unable to type in text in the box at Custom text. Any ideas? It just won't let me type in the box

It has not worked for me either...I think you have to use regular computer for input

Yup... iPad + Control Panel = bogus. We didn't anticipate folks using their iPads with the control panel and would be surprised to learn if 'anything' works on mobile safari.

@ Copper30 & ianjamespiano- What issue are you having exactly? I use my iPad to tweak my apps when out of the office and I can type in the Custom HTML - Text page without issue and save it. Occasionally the Pop-up windows in Advanced Screen Properties are not displaying all the fields, but this can be solved with using the next button on the top of your keyboard.

@ianjamespiano How far can you get? Can you get the cursor? select the text box and highlight the text you want to edit? I find that sometimes the touch sensitivity is a little off, and you need to find the right tapping to bring your cursor to a desired position and display the keyboard.

Hello MediaSleutel, USD your pad? Not sure what you mean. Use your iPad? I am able to use my iPad to edit my apps using the stock Safari browser with no issues, other then file uploads as you're already aware.
