How do I get rid of that grey bar at the bottom of the iPad screen

I have no idea what this thing is called.

It rarely has anything useful, but it is always blocking something in an app.

You can’t unfortunately.

I’m assuming you have a Bluetooth or Smart Keyboard attached.

It just pops up all the time. You dismiss it and it appears again without you even noticing.

It’s a complete nuisance.

Maybe it’s time to get this hashtag going again.
