Hi, my name is Tom and am a Peace Corps Volunteer in the country of Georgia. I use my iPad a lot in my daily work but the one thing I cannot do is change the virtual keyboard to Georgian. I get Russian, but it is Georgian that I need. How can the be facilitated? Who do I need to contact. I do use other tools, but they only offer cut and paste which makes doing things like searches or text writing very difficult. Thanks in advanced of any advice.

Thanks, I reviewed this app but it does not serve my needs. I want to go to settings>general>keyboard>Keyboards>Add New Keyboard and be able to select the Georgian keyboard. This way I can use it in all my apps, Pages, Keynote, Numbers, etc. I need to ask Apple to include this keyboard in their selection list. Any suggestions?

That's great--glad you were able to find a solution.

At this time, I am going to move this to the Help Section for others to see this as well.
