func textFieldShouldReturn(_ textField: UITextField) -> Bool {

        if textField == txtFldSponsorID {
            txtFldFullName.becomeFirstResponder()
        } else if textField == txtFldFullName {
            txtFldEmail.becomeFirstResponder()
        } else if textField == txtFldEmail {
            txtFldMobile.becomeFirstResponder()
        } else if textField == txtFldMobile {
            txtFldAddress.becomeFirstResponder()
        } else {
            txtFldCity.resignFirstResponder()
        }
        return true
    }

You can use this above UITextField Delegate method to jump to next UItextField.

1- Put a tag number for each textField in storyboard

2- Implement the textField delegate function:

func textFieldShouldReturn(_ textField: UITextField) -> Bool {
    if textField.tag == 1 {    //say this is txtFldSponsorID
        txtFldFullName.becomeFirstResponder()
    }
    return true
}

3- Change return key type in storyboard to "next" instead of "return", or with code:

txtFldSponsorID.returnKeyType = .next

4- Don't forget to set delegate = self

In order to move the cursor automatically to the next data entry field when the user presses Next on the keyboard you need to resignFirstResponder from the current field and assign it to the next field using becomeFirstResponder

if self.emaillabel.isEqual(self.anotherTextField)
 {
    self.anotherTextField.becomeFirstResponder()
 }
