Adding Cantonese Jyutping and Yale Keyboard

Typing Chinese in Cantonese pronunciation method is really important for the Hong Kong People. However, typing in Cantonese is not yet officially supported on iOS/iPadOS. So, please add an official Cantonese Jyutping and Yale keyboard to iPhones/iPads. Thank you.

iPad Air 2, iPadOS 14

Adding another language on iPad keyboard Hello, I’m looking to buy a bi-lingual iPad Magic keyboard with a language that isn’t available at the drop down menu at the site. I’m going to be at the Apple store physically and not buy it online, so I was wondering if there’s any way to add another language or if not, to get an English-only keyboard with the letters to the side like in other bi-lingual keyboards and not at the center, so I can add the other language myself..? Thanks!

Can other language such as Laotian get added to an iPhone? I wanted to ask if it was possible for me to add a language such as Laotian onto an iPhone, specifically my parents or if Apple could add it instead, Thai is the closest to Laos but isn't favored in my household.

From Apple's preview of iOS 15:

"Dialect lexicon support for Cantonese and Shanghainese: Type words in Pinyin using native Cantonese or Shanghainese dialectal spellings."
