I am using an iPad Pro connected with a physical keyboard. I am trying to use it with a third party input keyboard but it seems this function is disabled. When will this feature be available?
iPad Pro 12.9-inch, 3rd Gen, Wi-Fi

Unfortunately Apple does not yet provide hardware keyboard support for 3rd party keyboard layouts in iOS, only for those which it provides itself.

Nobody in these forums has any info on Apple's plans to add new features, but you can ask for the one you want via
I am having trouble understanding your issue.
How many keyboards are you trying to use at once?
Is this keyboard a wireless, Bluetooth keyboard?
Who is the maker of this keyboard?
You will have to explain this in better detail.
I am trying to use a physical Bluetooth keyboard with a third party Chinese input method (e.g. Boshiamy).
In the Settings app under General, Language and Regions, is that Chinese language version listed to be able to use with your iPad?
If not, then that keyboard may not work for you.
Third party keyboard input
