I found getting into insert mode difficult, too. What works for me:
* have bluetooth enabled in setup
* have the bluetooth keyboard off
* bring up vim
* tap the screen to get the virtual keyboard
* turn on the bluetooth keyboard; result: the virtual keyboard will
disappear and now I can use the bluetooth keyboard to get into insert
mode (and whatever).
