Is it possible to create custom Keyboard in iPhone which can get use by any other application. Similar to the Emoji keyboard. Is it possible to take advantage of the international keyboard feature for the iPhone and create a custom keyboard that can be used over for apps on iPhone?
Any help would be appreciated.
My suggestion is exploit the inputView property of textField. You can create a UIView having buttons on it like the keys in key board, and set action for each buttons. Do actions appropriately for tapping each key.

Unless you are planning on coding a whole keyboard from scratch you can only select existing keyboard types.
There is a really good article http://www.weheartswift.com/make-custom-keyboard-ios-8-using-swift/ which shows how to create a custom keyboard that may help you.
How can I embed custom keyboard buttons inside the iOS Default keyboard, like the "UP" app by Jawbone has done in the picture below.
I am looking to embed an "#" button identically to how the app has done it (I don't need the # button). I have found ways to add buttons above the keyboard or change the keyboard style (the email style includes the # button but adds unneccessary ones and makes the space button to small) but no way to seamlessly integrate it like above.
That is not a custom button, that is the keyboardType UIKeyboardTypeTwitter.
I need to add a custom key to the iOS system keyboard without requiring a jailbreak. For example, when I go into any app, I want my custom key to show up and then have it launch a view from my app.
I've seen tons of examples that do things like this from a custom UITextView, but nothing that modifies the keyboard for all apps.
No. Apple has iOS pretty locked down. Your app is pretty much in its own sandbox with a few outlets to the rest of the system.
You also can't create a custom keyboard like Android.
You can't but how about adding a UIToolBar on top of your keyboard?
You can't modify the system keyboard.

With iOS 8, Apple has made it possible to create custom keyboard that user can access throughout the device(in other applications also).
Please check Keyboard Extension.
You can create your own custom keyboard using Keyboard extension. You can check a nice tutorial here.
i need a custom keyboard like Emoji application does in my application. Any ideas how to create/register/add a new custom smiley keyboard?
If you're targeting for AppStore — you can't create/register/add a custom keyboard that reuses Apple's code (as they're undocumented). The only way you can do is create a custom view with many buttons as the keys.
