Can I use an external keyboard with the Co:Writer Universal iOS keyboard.

The Co:Writer Universal iOS keyboard does not see what I am typing with my Bluetooth/External keyboard.

Bluetooth/External keyboard's are seen as a third party keyboard on iOS devices. Apple only allows you to use one third party keyboard at a time, so when you type with the Bluetooth/ External keyboard the text is directly added to the app/document you are working in.     

The other third party keyboard (Co:Writer Universal) is bypassed and does not see the text.

An option would be to use the Co:Writer Universal iOS app with the Bluetooth/External keyboard.  When done creating the document select export and copy.  The text can then be pasted into the other app.
