Adding a second keyboard to iPhone is a very useful tool that can save time and increase productivity for many users. By default, only one keyboard is enabled on the iPhone, which is the most commonly used language in your country. While this is fine, many multilingual speakers are left in the dust.
iPhone has 40 different languages pre-installed, so there’s a good chance the language you want to add is already there. Adding multiple keyboards to iPhone allows users to communicate more efficiently than using translation apps to exchange messages for family and friends.
Fortunately, multiple keyboards are just a button away with a few tweaks to the settings. Follow the guide below to set multiple keyboard languages for iPhone.
Install Multiple Keyboards.
Open from home screen
Scroll down and select
Faucet
Under the keyboard options,
There will most likely only be one keyboard on the list. Tap to add another keyboard
The next screen has all the language options to choose from. By default, 40 different language keyboards are installed on iPhone. When you find the one you want to add, select it from the list by tapping on it.
After choosing your language, it will appear next to the other keyboard language on the previous page.
To see your new keyboard in action, go to Once in App, you should notice something different on the keyboard compared to when you only have one installed. A small globe-looking button will appear next to Siri on the bottom row of keys. This button is for switching between keyboards on iPhone. Tap at the bottom of the screen to switch to the keyboard you just installed.
After tapping the button, your new keyboard will replace the one you were using.
To return to the original keyboard, select the globe icon again and the keyboard will return.
Some other options that can be helpful with multiple keyboards are in the order in which they appear. For example, if spanish is your primary language, it may be more efficient to have this the first keyboard. To change these settings, go back to the keyboard list and select in the upper right corner.
To rearrange the keyboard order, drag them from top to bottom in the order you want them to appear. In this case, if you want the Arabic keyboard to be displayed first, then on the top and then on the second keyboard and so on.
To remove a keyboard from the list, select the keyboard to the right of the one you are eliminating.
Faucet
And the keyboard will be removed from the list later. Tap in the upper right corner when you’re done editing.
