Is it possible to have dictation input for a UITextField on the iOS simulator? If so, what do I need to do?
The device I have available for development is the iPhone 4, which I don't think supports dictation input.
Sorry, the simulator does not support dictation. Neither does the iPhone 4.

While using the iOS Simulator it is no problem to type an # symbole on the soft-keyboard.
However, when using the real keyboard (if connected using the simulator option Hardware/Keyboard/Connect Hardware Keyboard) pressing Option+L on the hardware keyboard does NOT type an # but ¬ sign...
This is quite annoying when testing login screens and other situations where an # sign is needed. I have to bring up the soft keyboard first.
Is there any trick to use the hardware keyboard to type an # sign in the iOS simulator?
BTW: I have no idea if this happens on real iOS devices with a real hardware keyboard as well, since I have no keyboard I could connect to a real iOS devices.
However this
Sounds like it's your keyboard layout. Option + L renders ¬ on both macOS and iOS for me. If you have an American English keyboard layout you probably want Shift + 2. If you prefer to use the keyboard layout you're accustomed to you might need to configure it in the simulator.
I am using ios simulator 10.3 and noticed that I can't toggle software keyboard anymore, and can't type anything. I downgraded to ios simulator 10.2 but the same problem persists.
I was able to make it work by deleting com.apple.iphonesimulator.plist in ~/Library/Preference but the problem again pops up when I restart my simulator. Can anyone help me to fix this issue or tell me when or why this Toggle Software Keyboard option is disabled ?
Toggle Software Keyboard is only available if Connect Hardware Keyboard is selected.
This should put it back (write this in terminal):
defaults write com.apple.iphonesimulator ConnectHardwareKeyboard -bool YES
For me cmd + k was not opening the keyboard in the iPhone 8 plus emulator. But when I used the same short key for the iPhone 12 Pro Max emulator the soft keyboard was opening.
I just installed iOS 8.3 on my iPhone 4s for testing my program. The swipe doesn't work on swift keyboard even turning on full access in the settings. Does we have to enable something from UITextfield to enable swipe for a specific input type.

Is it possible to use an AZERTY physical keyboard in iOS Simulator ? And how to do that ?
Unfortunately, there is a bug in the current iOS Simulator. You can switch the Keyboard in the Settings, but in Safari & Co, you still get the Englisch QWERTY-Keyboard. This Question has been answered here: iOS8.1 Simulator always uses US keyboard layout despite german hardware keyboard
I'll share it with you as soon as I find a proper solution or Apple fixes this, been watching out for this for a while now...
In my application there is no predictive keyboard showing in simulator.
From setting, It's already ON for predictive keyboard option.
For this same application and same screen, there is predictive keyboard showing on iPhone 6+ device.
Not sure why not there in simulator
If needed below info which i am using:
Xcode 6.0.1
iOS 8.0
iPhone 6+ simulator
OSX 10.10 Yosemite
If these helps to make any setting change.
I have also found one link to make it on, But not working on my case.
As per this link I have attached my screen show of simulator.
Thanks for the help!
You will have to set the autocorrection attribute of your text field to be UITextAutocorrectionTypeDefault or UITextAutocorrectionTypeYes to see the predictive feature
