Mobile Keyboard

Sometimes when developing your game you might need to have access to the keyboard Input that your target platform provides, this is done straight forward in unity just by calling some attributes via scripting.

Android

Unity Android reuses the iOS API to display system keyboard. Even though Unity Android supports most of the functionality of its iPhone counterpart, there are two aspects which are not supported:

  • iPhoneKeyboard.hideInput
  • iPhoneKeyboard.area

Please also note that the layout of a iPhoneKeyboardType can differ somewhat between devices.
