Jailbreak to the rescue; Keyboards

iOS 8 keyboards

It is unfortunately very common that Apple does not do things in iOS as we would all like, and this is the case of iOS 8 and its third-party keyboards. Surely we all have more than two keyboards, the one for our language, the Emoji keyboard, and then perhaps some extra language or third-party keyboards such as Riffsy (to put gifs), Swype or others.

The problem lies in switching between them, each time we press the keyboard change button, it goes to the next one, and therefore each time we decide to put an emoji, it is very likely that we will have to go through the entire list of keyboards or hold down the button and select the of writing.

As it happens many other times, the jailbreak scene has put its own solution through Cydia, and that is why I am about to launch a "tradition" that I want to call "Jailbreak to the rescue", where every time a tweak intended for fix an iOS bug or usability issue, I will expose it and give the necessary information.

In this case, we release with the tweak "Keyboard Accio", which does not have settings or icons or anything, it simply corrects the behavior of iOS so that pressing the keyboard change button simultaneously switches between the first and the second, so that putting Emojis and typing will be possible without any distraction, and to Do not abandon third-party keyboards that are useful on many occasions, we must keep the keyboard change button until the native list of keyboards that iOS brings by default is displayed, where we can freely choose the keyboard we want and later return to our keyboard principal.

As you can see, it is very simple, and it is something in which Apple should have thought, there is always the possibility of making us think that they are bad people and they do it so that it overwhelms us and we do not install more keyboards apart from the native ones, although I doubt very much that this is the reason, rather they should not consider it necessary or even practical anymore that there are many people who have no idea that a list is displayed by holding down that button, and Apple has always made things easy.

The tweak is in the form Delivery to Italy takes one or two business days in the repo of BigBoss, which is installed by default in Cydia.

    Before I had the keyboard in Spanish and English as well as the Emoji keyboard; Well, I have been able to delete them and keep one: SwiftKey 😉

    SwiftKey incorporates emoji without leaving the keyboard! For me it is the best without a doubt.
