does anyone know of a good scientific keyboard to use with iPad pro? Preferably one that can be added to the keyboards in settings. I have used SciKey on my iPhone and to be honest I have found it lacking.
I don't mind if it's a paid app as long as it's good.

I've seen many third party keyboard since the iOS8 launch as you can also see in this main third party keyboard topic but I don't think I've seen others then the one you mentioned. You might try to Google / Twitter to see if there are others out there in the App Store though.

Depending on what you are looking for I did found third party calculators (Pcal, Scientific calculator with scientific features in them but these are not third party keyboards though.

Just thought I would update this for any future readers. I tried SciKey again and paid the upgrade to pro ($2Au) and I'm pleasantly surprised with it this time around. Its not perfect but it seems to be the best option at the moment.

On another subject i purchased pcalc and after trying lots of free scientific calculators I think this was money well spent. I would still rather use a standalone calculator but for the times I leave it at home this is great.
