Polytonic Greek keyboard for iOS

Can I type an Ancient Greek text using standard iOS keyboard? If I don’t can I ask Apple developers to add polytonic keyboard for the Greek like they do with English — there are several keyboard types (QWERTY/AZERTY/QWERTZ)? Maybe it’s possible to type polytonic Greek with the hardware keyboard connected to iPad?

See if you can try with a hardware keyboard. I just tried with a bluetooth Apple Keyboard and found it as an option. I cannot test it however because I do not know Greek.


Settings> General> Keyboard> Keyboards> Add Greek


Then with a hardware keyboard connected go to Settings> General> Keyboard> Hardware Keyboards> Greek Switch from automatic to polytonic.
