You can use tab stops to align text. When you insert a tab in text or a table cell, the insertion point and any text to the right of it move to the next tab stop, and text you enter starts at that point. You can also add tab stops for center-aligned text, right-aligned text, and decimal-aligned numbers.
Tap the text to place the insertion point where you want to insert a tab stop, then tap again.
Tap Insert, then tap Tab.
The insertion point moves to the closest tab stop. Tapping Tab again moves to the next tab stop, and so on.
For information about inserting a tab in a table cell, see Change the look of text in tables.
To immediately undo a tab insertion, tap Undo.
