At runtime for the app, I want the user to be able to select the keypad language. And when the app is finished for it to switch back.
Thanks
You could not do it programmatically but there is one option is available in keyboard itself.
Go through the following post, will helpful for you
Change Your Keyboard or Display Language in iOS
Setting the iPhone keyboard language
I don't think that there is a programmatic way to enforce this. You can inplemet your own custom input if you want.

I am developing a iphone app in different language and now i have to change the key panel layout.

I want to change the return button text in different language . This can be possible? If it is, then give me some advice for that.
The language of the keyboard is the user's choice. If he's from Germany he probably set the OS and the keyboard to German too. Try going to the Settings app and change the keyboard.
I'm developing an iphone app and want to have the option to programmatically change the language. For example the user can change the language for spell checking and auto-correction by tapping on the world icon on the iphone keyboard, but the problem is that my app has a custom keyboard so I dont have that key.
Is there a way to create a functionality similar to that world icon key so that I could offer language choices available on the device and the user could select one?
I think Milad isn't asking how to change the language per se, but how to change the keyboard type. If so, then I don't think this is possible.
Don't forget that a certain keyboard doesn't necessarily lock into a specific language, like how I can type English using Japanese keyboard. And that certain languages have several keyboard types (Chinese has 3 or 4).
Is it possible to change the language of keyboard in iphone Programmatically? In my app, I want change the appearance of key board to Dutch language, how to do this?
its depend upon your phone settings. There is no need of code. if your phone language id dutch then keyboard also shows dutch language. but make sure that don't write kay board type UIkeyboardtypealphatebic , becoz if you write this then default english keyboard appears. So remove it from your code...
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.
I need to create an iPhone app that supports user input in multiple languages. The user needs to be able to change his input language at runtime between English, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, etc. Is there any way through the iPhone SDK to display a keyboard for a language other than the user's default language?
No, you can't change the keyboard programmatically.
BUT you can completely ignore the system keyboard and use your own custom keyboard. If you design your keyboard from scratch, you can then have complete control of it.
It's a lot of work, but since I have seen a few apps using custom keyboards I guess it's OK with Apple rules.
No, but note that if the user has turned on more than one keyboard in their Settings, there's a small button next to the spacebar that lets them switch languages.
Nope, your application cannot control the user’s preferred language (and thus the keyboard’s input method) - there is no programmatic control for this.
