Third party Keyboards are one of the most intriguing features of iOS 8.0. Google already had allowed creating custom keyboard for developers. The third party keyboards are now available in iOS, but how to use them is not so obvious. Some of these keyboards access internet and affects the privacy of the user. These keyboards work as Keyboard Extensions in iOS. Inorder to activate the third party keyboards, often we have to do the below
Open Device Settings -> General -> Keyboard -> Add New Keyboard -> (Name of Keyboard) -> Allows (Full Access)
One thing noted is that such keyboards doesn't get activated in the password fields. While Apple OS itself restrict the apps from allowing the 3rd party keyboards to appear in the protected fields such as passwords, app should also be taking care of this to avoid such keyboards popping up in the fields such as credit card entry fields.
