Philippine Peso (₱) sign on the iPad?

Hi,


Is there a way that the Peso Sign (₱) can integrated in the iPad keyboard? I've already checked all of the available keyboards as well as holding the $ key for a long time to show other currencies. I hope they integrate this as I feel it's a big oversight for users in emerging economies.


If you know any other solutions please let me know!


Thanks in advance!

Hi there,


While this isn't built into the default keyboard, one option you do have is to set up a custom keyboard shortcut that would replace $ (or other currency symbol of your choosing) with ₱. Page 25 of the iPad User Guide has the information on setting up these shortcuts, but I have added the bit that applies below. User uploaded file

The last thing to overcome would be getting ₱ into the Phrase field. This can be solved by copying the symbol from a note, email, or other source and pasting it into the Phase field. Also, keep in mind that the shortcut must be at least 2 characters long, so maybe a shortcut like $$ or €€ may be best for you.


Hope that helps,
