Touch, keyboard, mouse, and pen
With Surface, you can easily switch between touch, keyboard, mouse, and pen. Use whichever you want, when
you want.
Touch
You can use your fingers to interact with Surface. For example, drag your finger across the Start screen to scroll
and tap a tile to open it.
To learn about using touch, be sure to read the Touch: tap, slide, and beyond topic in this guide.
To learn how to use the on-screen touch keyboard, see the On-screen keyboard topic.
Keyboard
You can choose from two keyboard covers for your Surface:
Touch Cover or Type Cover.
Both keyboards magnetically attach to Surface. To attach
Touch Cover or Type Cover, simply bring the two close
together. When Touch Cover gets close, it aligns and snaps
into place.
Once connected, the keyboard cover stays put. You can
easily remove it if you’d like. Just pull it away.
When you fold Touch Cover or Type Cover back behind the touchscreen, the keyboard is disabled. This way you
can’t accidently type on the keyboard.
