This one isn’t so much of a tip as it is a reason to rejoice. Before iOS 9, the gray highlighted shift key was the only way to know whether you were typing a capital or lowercase letter. Many users found this confusing and it interferred with third-party keyboard apps. No more!
Now, when selected, the shift key highlights black and each letter on the keyboard capitalizes.
Tap again to unselect; every letter returns to lowercase.
