Use keyboardType(_:) to specify the keyboard type to use for text entry. A number of different keyboard types are available to meet specialized input needs, such as entering email addresses or phone numbers.

The example below presents a TextField to input an email address. Setting the text field’s keyboard type to .emailAddress ensures the user can only enter correctly formatted email addresses.
