So I have an app that when you press the numbers on your keyboard on top, it normally types the symbols. But with the app it types the numbers.
But if I run it in xcode, everything works fine, but when i open the app outside of xcode it doesn't work.
I have the newest update of mac os x and xcode.
Video:
Can anybody help me please?

Here's what I would do. There are many ways to calculate the modified character, this is one of them.
