external keyboard on iPad - use the App or Safari?
I just got an iPad Pro and a Logitech keyboard. When I pull up the WorkFlowy app, It works so-so, needing lots of mouse-movement and clicking... essentially as it works with fingers on the screen.
I open up WorkFlowy in Safari and it works magically like on a desktop. Arrow keys move around, Shift-arrows expand and collapsel Shift-Enter goes into the notes. It's great! (And no, none of this works in Chrome on the iPad.)
So are there any plans to upgrade the iPad App to recognize keyboard activity? Or should I just retrain myself to using Safari?

Well, let me add to (and correct) my earlier post.
Under "Accessibility" in SETTINGS there is a "Full Keyboard Access" option. I turned that on before trying out the WorkFlowy app. That option breaks a lot of the arrow key navigation not only in WorkFlowy but in Chrome as well.
If you don't mess with that setting (ie, leave it off) then the app works very closely to desktop. Arrow keys move around and shift-arrow expands and collapses. But shift-enter does not toggle the note on and off (it does do so in Safari). You have to click the note button (which isn't that hard to do).
