Recently Word on Ipad is having some issues:
I have already done these trouble shootings: updated my Ipad (maybe this was the cause of the problem because I didn't notice this issue until then), updated to latest Word, uninstalled and reinstalled word, offloaded word app from Ipad storage and reinstalled it, hard restarted my device. I use this app frequently so am very familiar with it. Also, I tried testing other writing tools such as OneNote and Ipad Notes app, but have not had this same issue.
System Info:
Ipad Pro 11inch 3rd Generation, Ipad OS 18.4, Word version 2.95.3.
A family of Microsoft word processing software products for creating web, email, and print documents.

Yes. Proofreading is the only place where it gets me now. Hopefully, by the end of the week they will fix that, too.
The scrolling makes the product worse than useless for proofreading. I’m trying to find a way to convert to Pages. I really think it would be helpful to consider other products that don’t break to an unusable state with no word that it’s being worked on or any expectation that it will be fixed.
In the latest Word update (5/6), the missing keystrokes have been resolved on my iPads. The page scrolling has not been resolved. I can live with the page scrolling, but the missing keystrokes had me looking for alternatives.

Hate that I’m not the only one experiencing this. I keep hoping with each update a fix.
