Why did my Willow iOS keyboard disappear?

If the Willow keyboard stops showing up, iOS likely switched you back to your default keyboard. Here’s how to bring it back fast.

Why this happens

Willow works as a custom iOS keyboard. Sometimes iOS automatically switches you back to the default Apple keyboard, which makes it look like Willow “disappeared.”


How to switch back to Willow

  1. Open any text field so your keyboard appears

  2. On the keyboard, tap the globe icon in the bottom-left corner

  3. Select Willow from your keyboard list


If Willow still doesn’t show up

1. Check that the Willow keyboard is enabled

  • Open Settings

  • Go to General → Keyboard → Keyboards

  • Make sure Willow is listed and turned on

2. Restart both apps

Swipe up and close the app you’re typing in and the Willow app, then reopen them.

3. Restart your iPhone

A quick reboot fixes most keyboard refresh issues.
