iOS 9 now supports Send button. This is the following swift code

self.liveChatMessage.returnKeyType = .Send

Objective C:

[self.liveChatMessage setReturnKeyType: UIReturnKeyTypeSend];

Unfortunately, you can change "Return" into only one of these predefined labels with the returnKeyType property:

  • Return (default)
  • Go
  • Google
  • Join
  • Next
  • Route
  • Search
  • Send
  • Yahoo
  • Done
  • Emergency Call
  • Continue (as of iOS 9)

So maybe you should choose "Next" if a data entry kind of activity is what you're after.

You can use this simple way: [textField setReturnKeyType:UIReturnKeyNext]; or [textField setReturnKeyType:UIReturnKeyGo]; instead of "Add" button.

Other, you create a programmatically keyboard with buttons which you want.
