In iOS 8, when develop a custom keyboard and set RequestsOpenAccess property to YES in info.plist, there is a toggle button at Settings-> Add New Keyboard named "Allow Full Access". How does the custom keyboard code know that the user enabled or disabled this toggle?
Go to Settings > Accessibility > Keyboards, tap Full Keyboard Access, then turn on Full Keyboard Access.
With Full Keyboard Access enabled, you can use the Tab key and other keys to navigate every UI element on the screen and navigate your Mac, instead of using a mouse or trackpad. Full Keyboard Access highlights the item on the screen that has focus.
Full Access means that all available functionality of the Software is enabled for use by Customer.
"Full access allows the developer of this keyboard to transmit anything you type, including things you have previously typed with this keyboard. This could include sensitive information such as your credit card number or street address."
UPDATE 08/23/2017 for iOS 10 compatibility:
func isOpenAccessGranted() -> Bool{ UIPasteboard.general.string = "CHECK" return UIPasteboard.general.hasStrings }
iOS 8:
-(BOOL)isOpenAccessGranted{ return [UIPasteboard generalPasteboard]; }
Please note that the simulator will always tell you that you have Full Access so for this to work properly you need to run it from a device.
