Is it possible to disable third-party keyboards when hardware keyboard is connected?

I frequently switch the way I use my iPad from ‘laptop mode’, with the Magic Keyboard, to tablet mode.

When I’m using the hardware keyboard, I only need to switch between two iOS keyboards (US English and my native language), but when I detach the iPad from Magic Keyboard, I like to use other third-party keyboards. This situation makes me go into system setting and add/remove the third-party keyboards every time I want to switch mode.


Is there any easier way to disable third-party keyboards while iPad is connected to Magic Keyboard?

iPad Pro 12.9-inch, 3rd Gen, Wi-Fi
