Virtial keyboard settings
In order to use the scanner - physical keyboard layout needs to be set to English(US).
To use the scanner and the on-screen keyboard at the same time, for example, to type in employee ids,
the setting to display the on-screen keyboard must be turned on. The location and the name of the setting
depends on the model of your device. Consult Google to find and enable it.
On most devices those settings have correct values pre-set. If you can scan the barcodes in the
Fieldapp and the virtual keyboard appears when you tap on the entry - you don't need to do anything.
