Answer 1

• First, set the appearance of your UITextField to Alert to get the black keyboard.

• Then, you only need two more views :

  • a black one for the background

  • a white one which will be the background of your text field, which you programmatically apply the following code to (don't forget to #import <QuartzCore/QuartzCore.h> first):

    view.layer.cornerRadius = 10;
