iOS 8 custom keyboard on device

I created an custom keyboard using the default template in Xcode 6 and when I run it in the simulator I see a keyboard with a "Next Keyboard" button. However, when I try to run the app on my iOS 8 device, the keyboard will show up in settings but when I try to use it in the messages app the keyboard will not display. How can I use the custom keyboard on a device rather than in the simulator?

I fixed this by turning guided access off in accessibility settings.

To test your keyboard on physical device, you have to change the value of the RequestsOpenAccess Boolean key in the Info.plist of your keyboard extension (not containing app)to YES.

now run application on physical device and grant access to your custom keyboard in keyboard section of general and now you can test it.
