I just ran an app that I am developing on the iPhone X simulator in Xcode 9.1. The soft keyboard doesn't appear when I tap inside of a UITextView. It works fine in the iPhone 8 simulator. To trouble shoot I ran the calendar app on the iPhone X simulator and selected the search icon. Again, no keyboard popped up.

Anyone else seeing this behavior or have a fix?

  • Will give that a shot tonight when I get home, but when a uitextview gets the focus it should appear on its own. Commented Nov 13, 2017 at 13:45

    Once you toggle keyboard(⌘ + K), it will enable until you toggle again. Commented Nov 14, 2017 at 4:40

    Had the hardware keyboard on. Shift + CMD + K fixed it. Thanks for the clue! Commented Nov 14, 2017 at 4:52

The reason this was happening to me was because the hardware keyboard was on, so the soft keyboard wouldn't appear. Shift + CMD + K fixed it. Not sure why that was on by default though.

In my case the keyboard is affected by the blue-tooth selfie stick. Reset iPhone blue-tooth which disconnects the selfie stick fixed the problem.
