Can you use this case/keyboard in portrait without falling over?

Not really. Though it seems to be pretty stable, the magnetic bar that attaches is probably not strong enough to hold securely. I just tried it and it does hold, but I'd recommend separating it and not use it attached.BTW, the keyboard works great.

If you hold the keyboard & ipad together, otherwise one or the other will fall over

I've not had any problem with it tipping. It's working better than I expected it to.

I found that you could, but it isn't stable even on a completely hard surface.

Yes, absolutely. It's made not to tip over so it works in either portrait or landscape.

I use the keyboard on my lap, I have not had any problems. There is a little "grove" for the feet to fit into. If the angle was to great, maybe the feet would slip out.

Hi Dave, No but it doesn't glide back easily either. It requires some level of light force to move it in either direction. If you are typing "down" onto the keyboard I think you will be fine.

That wont be necessary, once you have accomplished the appropriate angles to create a sturdy stance nothing is going to fall. I stand all day but on occasion I sit. I simple bring my keyboard down to my desk and move my monitor to the keyboard tray which is perfect eye level for me I am 5'7.

Yes, you can, but only to view. If you wanted the tablet in portrait and adjust the keyboard to type beneath it in portrait, it does not do that.

Yes, you can move the keyboard and use it in either landscape or portrait mode. The keyboard can easily be moved around as it is magnetic.

I just rotate my ipad and put it on top of the keyboard with the back of the ipad on top of the keyboard. It isn't flat but it works for me..

Sort of. As the other answers note, while the tablet is installed in the cover, portrait mode isn't an option. But I just uploaded a photo showing a tablet resting on mine in portrait mode. It just isn't snapped in. You need to settle for using the cover to prop the unit up like an easel. The keyboard itself should still be functional as it works via Bluetooth.

Dear Bill R., The keyboard case axis' maximum rotation is 135 degree, so you can not flip the keyboard behind the ipad, if you still want to play games, you can take off case first. Do you mean you want to use it

Hello. Yes it can. Also, the keyboard can be on either side or in the corner.

Yes you can. The casing for the entire keyboard and iPad mini case are durable and smooth. You can fold it over and still use the iPad or you can set it up for Landscape mode or portrait and use the keyboard.

Hi Sarah, if I correctly understand your question, I agree with Julie, the weight of the phone would cause the case to flop backwards unless you hold the case in one hand and type with the fingers on the other hand. I use the keyboard by placing the case, phone and keyboard flat. However also as Julie stated, the keyboard can be removed from the case thus allowing the case to be used as a stand. The keyboard would then be placed in front or beside the adapted phone/case stand. Again, like Julie, I like the product. Hope this helps.

Not on a regular desk or drawer. I get a negative tilt by putting this keyboard on a lapboard and sitting on a balance disc, so my thighs are at a negative tilt angle. The lapboard has a corduroy covered beanbag back that runs almost the length of the board which keeps it (and my keyboard) from sliding down my legs.

Yes you can! The strap of the case only secures the tablet itself. But the keyboard is definitely removable without having to remove the case.

YES, but I canNOT recommend it if you hope to prop up your ipad. It slips and slides when you try to position. I ended up replacing with a Logictech Fabric keyboard which is a perfect case. I now use the Apple case only if traveling because it is lighter weight. Hard to believe that Apple has not addressed the problems with this case. Good Luck!

It could but it becomes top heavy and can flip the keyboard. Also, the iPad isn't anchored well. You could do it but carefully.
