No text formatting options on in-display keyboard in notes.

When I open a new note, I can use the Bold, Italic and Underline tools from the keyboard itself. But, as soon as I close the keyboard and open it again, the options just vanish.

How to fix this issue.


Current software version: iPadOS 17.0.3


I am facing this issue after installing iPadOS 17.

Thank you for pointing that out, but those options on keyboard are much more handy while typing, clicking above every time to format texts is just so annoying, especially on a 12.9 inches device.


And the actual issue is that I get those options, but only for once, when I type for the very first time in a new note. Once I close the keyboard and open it again in the same note, they vanish. Tell me how to fix that.
