I am developing a custom keyboard extension. Everything works so far, but ... Is it possible to give my custom keyboard an icon which iOS will show if it would be the next to show? I searched but i can't find anything.
Example: If i only have the text and emoji-keyboard the Globe/ABC-Button changes to an emoji if the next keyboard is the emoji-keyboard.
i have to put switching keyboard menu like apple keyboard in my custom keyboard.
choose another keyboard from my keyboard on click on globe button same like apple keyboard.
If possible then please explain how can i access these keyboard of apple in my custom keyboard app.

if it's possible then give me solution, Thanks.
I am making app with default spanish language. In email form I want show english keyboard. Is it possible to do it?
Unfortunately, you cannot control the language of the keyboard. The user chooses which keyboards they would like available via the settings application and can toggle between them using the globe icon on the keyboard. When the keyboard is opened it will open to the most recently used keyboard.check this like http://iphone.appstorm.net/how-to/change-your-keyboard-or-display-language-in-ios/
You can make a customize keyboard. take a UIView add UIButton and add what you want to all in this view.
I'm trying to design a custom keyboard for iOS 8. Here are my development steps:
1. Created new project (Single view)
2. Created a new target: File > New > Target, and in the iOS template group chose the Custom Keyboard template.
Then I tried to enable the keyboard based on the documentation steps, which are:
1. Run the app
2. In iOS Simulator, press home button (Command+Shift+H)
3. Go to Settings > General > Keyboard > Keyboards.
4. Tap Add New Keyboard.
5. In the Purchased Keyboards group, tap the name of your new keyboard. A modal view appears with a switch to enable your keyboard.
6. Tap the switch to enable your keyboard. A warning alert appears.
7. In the warning alert, tap Add Keyboard to finish enabling your new keyboard. Then tap Done.
My problem is in step 5. The modal view does not show a switch to activate the keyboard, it shows an empty view like bellow:
I clicked on Done button and it shows my Custom keyboard in activated list:
But when I want to use this keyboard, for example in spotlight, it won't show my keyboard
Clicking the done button will activate the keyboard. There are some definite bugs in those menus.
To change keyboards, you can also try just tapping on the button to change keyboard, rather than holding it like you were in the last screenshot.
Also, it looks like you have the language for that keyboard set as persian, and my guess would be that it is not appearing because your system language is not persian (or the text field you are typing in doesn't support persian).
I wouldn't be surprised if there are other bugs in the simulator that would affect this. I'm glad to hear you were able to get it working.
After you click done, it should install the keyboard, even if you don't see the list in the settings table.
About the keyboard not showing up - you need to kill the app before running a new keyboard. it's a known issue on the simulator.
good luck!
