Before updating to ios 18, the Ukrainian keyboard had the option to use some letters from the Russian alphabet. With a longer press of the keys "ь", "и", "є" I could easily type the letters "ъ", "ы", "э". Now this option is not available. I used the function really often in everyday life. Now I have to constantly switch between two languages. Why did you do this?

I am not sure if you know how the old keyboard used to work. Russian letters only showed up when user pressed on Ukrainian letters and held them down. They were not part of the main keyboard layout. It was super convenient. Зараз мушу встановити цілю русняву клавіатуру та бачити її навіть коли не хочу писати російською, бо вона вискакує кожного разу коли треба перемкнути з української на англійську.
Soooo don’t install russian keyboard. Your needs are not above needs of other people. Please don’t force me to see russian letters because you want to type in russian using Ukrainian keyboard but you don’t want to install russian keyboard.
But you don't see these letters unless you're looking for them on purpose. The letters are hidden, and you have to long press to get to them.
Буду очень признателен. Спасибо.

This is about iOS. Those apps only work in MacOS.

But I do not and would not expect Russian letters to ever appear on a Ukrainian keyboard.
There were present through iOS 17 and are present on the option level in MacOS.

Spellcheck/autocorrect follows the keyboard in iOS. Was that not a problem when typing Russian with a Ukrainian keyboard?
How about that: ask to add Ukrainian letters to russian keyboard?
