Just noticed that in UITextView keyboard comes without change language button, unlike in UITextField. Why Apple removed this button from UITextView keyboard? Is there any way to enable this button? I want people to be able to write notes on any keyboard language added in phone settings.
EDITED: Maybe it will help somebody in the future. Just noticed that I set keyboard type to UIKeyboardTypeAlphabet and this option eliminates language button. Closing this question.
P.S. I have 3 languages enabled in test iPhone.
You are completely wrong. there is no difference in UIKeyboard in iOS whatsoever. It only depends on what keyboard types you use.
UIKeyboardTypeDefault and UIKeyboardTypeEmailAddress and UIKeyboardTypeTwitter all have those.
You set it like this:
txtField.keyboardType = UIKeyboardTypeTwitter;
UIKeyboardTypeDefault is obviously the default one for any UITextView or UITextField in iOS.
For anyone have this problem even when using UIKeyboardTypeDefault on a UITextView, go into the storyboard and make sure "Secure Text Entry" is unchecked. After unchecking this, the keyboard selector will return as well as the quick type keyboard.

I have a UITextField, and the keyboard shows a mic button, which I'd like to disable. I'm especially concerned that it shouldn't show on iPhone X.
I already disabled the Emoji keyboard by setting the keyboard type to "ASCII Capable". Is there another setting to remove dictation?
We are talking about the mic symbol in lower right corner on an iPhone X.
You should not remove it since this is where users of an iPhone X are expecting it.
Also you can not remove the keyboard switcher on the left.
only if you use a custom view for the keyboard, but why?
As you can see on any other iPhone the mic key is still in the same position.
By changing type of keyboard you can discard things you don't want
textField.keyboardType = UIKeyboardTypeEmailAddress;
above one not exact solution but still that can give some idea regarding keyboard type
Hope this will help you
So, Apple has a bug right now where if you type an Emoji into a UITextField, it will shift the text down. In fact, if you type enough emojis and then backspace, it'll shift the text even further down from where it was supposed to be. I confirmed this by trying UITextFields in Twitter, Snapchat and other apps.
Here is a video of my app displaying the bug.
Use this: textField.clipsToBounds = false
It prevents the textField to move when editing. Even when you try to edit it again.
(Tested on iPhone 6, iOS 10.0)
I don't think their would be a way around this, as it just seems that the emoji is changing the margin of the text inside of the UITextField.
Is it possible to Add Qwerty and Azerty in custom keyboard for iOS
I have a file DefaultKeyboard.swift and i tried to add anything like AzertyKeyboard.swift
Thank you on avance
Apple requests that each keyboard language is added in a UIInputViewController of its own. De-facto, all the keyboards are changing languages inside the same UIInputViewController by replacing the layout or keyboard map.
You can choose either way.
I have a ios8 project in XCode 6.1 using size classes. At somepoint in development, the Keyboard stopped displaying while editing a UITextField. To debug, I made simple UIViewController with a single UITextField in a different storyboard in the project, and the keyboard would not display for that UITextField either.
I then made an entirely new project and a simple UIViewController and a single UITextField and the keyboard DID work correctly.
I've looked at all the settings in the project and could find nothing that looks like it affects the keyboard.
Any ideas on what is going on?
If this happen only in the simulator then go to
Hardware Menu->Keyboard->Toggle Software Keyboard
or use shortcut key
cmd+k
Go to simulator -> Hardware then
then click on Toggle Softwate Kwyboard, then you will get key board for TextField
Here is my very simple code for creating a UITextView.
UITextView *textView = [[UITextView alloc] initWithFrame:self.view.bounds];
textView.editable = NO;
textView.text = #"Using iOS 3.0 and later, VoiceOver is available to help users with visual impairments use their iOS-based devices. The UI Accessibility programming interface, introduced in iOS 3.0, helps developers make their applications accessible to VoiceOver users. Briefly, VoiceOver describes an application’s user interface and helps users navigate through the application’s views and controls, using speech and sound. Users familiar with VoiceOver in Mac OS X can leverage their experience to help them quickly come up to speed using VoiceOver on their devices.";
[self.view addSubview:textView];
Given that I could not possibly do anything wrong here I am just wondering if this is an expected behaviour or a bug perhaps somebody also faced:
With voiceover enabled I expect the entire text view to be “highlighted” on tap, then its accessibilityLabel to be read to a user and after they double tap, the entire text view’s text to be read.
But what is happening is that a small portion of the text view is highlighted (usually 2 lines), accessibilityLabel is not read, but the first “highlighted" line and the first letter (!) of the second line are read instead and only after a user double taps the entire text is read.
Especially reading the first letter in the second highlighted line confuses me. Plus shouldn’t accessibilityLabel be always read in the beginning?
This looks like a big to me but Apple has always paid so much attention to accessibility, so I’m having doubts if I should report it, may be the meant it to be this way.
Another question: is there a way to achieve the following behaviour (without subleasing UITextView) when voiceover is enabled: user taps UITextView -> accessibilityLabel and the entire text are read?
In case someone else has this problem here is the answer:
textView.accessibilityTraits = UIAccessibilityTraitStaticText;
Combining the other two answers from this post has the desired effect. i.e.
textView.isAccessibilityElement = true
textView.accessibilityTraits = .staticText
Also if you are setting the attributedText property on the UITextView make sure you DO NOT set the accessibilityLabel (on the UITextView). Doing so will cause VoiceOver (Xcode 12.5, iOS 14.4.2) to read the text twice.
textView.isAccessibilityElement = true
This Works
