Australian English iOS keyboard missing ñ

Hi, I just noticed that the Australian English keyboard on my iPhone is missing ñ as a special character. This is quite annoying as it is one of the few special characters I sometimes use! This is probably the first time I have tried to use it since updating to iOS 15 back when it became available. Is this just me or is it now missing across all Aus English keyboards on iOS? If it’s not an issue with the standard keyboard, how can I fix it?

iPhone 13 Pro Max, iOS 15

I have had the same problem on my IPad (IOS15.1) and iPhone (IOS15.0.2) since upgrading to IOS15. I solved the problem by deleting the Australian English Keyboard and replacing it with the UK English Keyboard.

Just adding the UK English keyboard didn’t work, neither did adding any Spanish Keyboards. To get ñ, or for that matter ń, back, the Australian English keyboard had to be deleted.

Bizarre.

Australian. Perhaps try restarting your device and removing/readding various English keyboards.

Yeah same. It’s so annoying. My Latin American friends always correct me when I can’t type the ñ haha. I have to apologise and tell them it’s a bug with the Aussie keyboard. Hopefully will be fixed in next update? I’m using UK one for now. US one is hopeless for us.

My iPad on iOS 15 definitely has ñ as one of the options. My iPhone is still on ios14 and also has ñ there.

Hi Tom, is this the Australian English keyboard or US English? I may have to switch to the US English keyboard 😒

I have the same problem. Tried that. Didn’t make a difference. Only Australian English keyboard. It has it on the UK English keyboard.

My iPhone SE, now on 15.1 I think, has no problem showing ñ with the Australian English keyboard. I wonder what could be different about the phones where this doesn't work right.
