Simplified Chinese: Missing Character Makes for Horrible Typo

I'm having an issue where the simplified Chinese pinyin keyboard for the iPad does not have this character 女 at all. This is a major problem because this is the first character in the word "daughter" 女儿. Instead of giving this combination for daughter it gives 奴儿 which means "slave."

You can see why this is not a great mistake to make.


It doesn't show it as an option at all.

The only time it ever shows the character is under the radical menu to pick the other character.



Even using stroke number it doesn't show any characters less than 5 strokes, when 女 is only 3.


The only way I've been able to type 女 at all has been by using copy/paste when googling it or using my phone to type instead.

iPad Pro, iPadOS 16

Try "nv". I think that is the pinyin input for nü
