Programmatically detect all keyboards which are set in my iPhone settings?

Question

How do I know, how much keyboards enabled into my iPhone keyboard settings.

Even if user downloaded other custom keyboard from app store, still I want in list programmatically.

Answer 1

NSArray *keyboards = [[[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] dictionaryRepresentation] objectForKey:@"AppleKeyboards"]; // Array of all active keyboards

NSLog(@"List of all keyboards : %@",keyboards);

Answer 2

You can ask current first responder (UITextField, UISearchBar, etc.).

// assume you have instance variable pointing to search bar currently entering

UITextInputMode *inputMode = [self.searchBar textInputMode];
NSString *lang = inputMode.primaryLanguage;
