There is enough simple way. You can make a Panel with own 'keyboard' and to assign it to inputView property of TextField / TextView. For example,

B4X:

    Dim p As Panel
    '  add own buttons  
    Dim no As NativeObject = TextField1
    no.SetField ("inputView", p)

When TextField will receive a focus, IOS will show your panel instead of virtual keyboard. As I understand, physical keyboard will work also (at least it's so in Simulator).

The above works well thank you but I was wondering if there was a way to also hide the grey undo bar that appears at the bottom when the textfield has focus?



Regards,
Simon.

After no.SetField ("inputView", p) add

B4X:

Dim item As NativeObject = no.GetField ("inputAssistantItem")
item.SetField ("leadingBarButtonGroups", Null)
item.SetField ("trailingBarButtonGroups", Null)
