How to disable 3rd party keyboard use in Flutter?

Flutter masters!

Is there a way to forbid (disable) usage of a third party keyboard (any custom keyboard) in a Flutter app? I want to be able to use ONLY the system soft keyboard.

Regards!

Solution

  • You can disable iOS 3rd party keyboard but not Android because Android count everything as 3rd party keyboard

    to disable in iOS, go to AppDelegate and add this line into Xcode

    override func application(_ application: UIApplication, shouldAllowExtensionPointIdentifier extensionPointIdentifier: UIApplicationExtensionPointIdentifier) -> Bool {
        return extensionPointIdentifier != .keyboard
}

    to disable in Android, there is no way to disable it unless you create your own keyboard in the app.
