You cannot achieve this by changing the return button type, instead you need to change the keyboard type. In order to change the keyboard type to match the one you posted that you would like to match, use the twitter keyboard type.

Swift 2

textView.keyboardType = .Twitter

Swift 3

textView.keyboardType = .twitter
