# Can I use Overleaf on an iPad or other mobile devices?

Overleaf can be accessed through the browser on your iPad and other mobile devices, although some functionality may be limited. We’re still working on providing fuller support for mobiles and tablets.

If you run into any issues, try an [alternative browser](/latex/knowledge-base/159-which-browsers-does-overleaf-support.md) first to see if that helps.

### Known issues and areas for improvement

While we’re working on improving how Overleaf works on mobile devices and tablets, there are some areas that are known not to perform as expected when compared with desktop and laptop devices. Some areas that have known issues are:

* The size of touch targets may not be optimal for all devices on all browsers. This may result in difficulty in selecting and clicking on some menus and other areas of the editor.
* Keyboard pop-up and zoom behavior when accessing some areas of the editor may not be as expected.
  * The experience may be improved by collapsing the project files pane.
* Scrolling behavior can be inconsistent.
* General behavior of external keyboards and input methods (touchscreen and trackpads) may vary.
* Shortcuts or HotKeys might not be available.
* The behavior of the Overleaf PDF viewer may be restricted—if you run into PDF display issues, please try [changing to the Browser viewer](/latex/knowledge-base/027-changing-pdf-viewer.md).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://overleaf-pro.ayaka.space/latex/knowledge-base/014-can-i-use-overleaf-on-an-ipad-or-other-mobile-devices.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
