Could it be that it's your keyboard? I was able to make my keyboard look like this:

Im using the English keyboard and I found (and used) the letters in iKeywi. To do, I had to have the shift key activated, and then held down my "A" for the Å and Æ characters, then I had the shift key activated and held my "O" down to get the Ø character:

These three characters do produce the uppercase letters. If you want the lowercase, but don't want them showing on the main keyboard (cause they look yucky! :)) - then maybe you can put the lowercase ones on the alt keyboard (so it only shows when the shift key is pressed).

So, if this doesn't work with your keyboard, maybe try switching over to the English one to get iKeywi set up the way you wish? Then, I should think you can switch back to your keyboard (and, hopefully, the changes will stay).

Interesting puzzle, but I don't know of any other solution. Except, maybe, an e-mail to the developer...

Hmmm, back in the good old days, with Osborne portables (1985) is was simpler, just a small fix in source code ;))

Nowadays, I dont fix I only use, way too complicated

_-----------

I have now hacked a solution I can "live with" until the developer finds the time to release a new version.

Of course, there was hidden characters, shame on me, so now I also have uppercase ÆÅØ

Hi everybody,
I have the French Azerty iKeywi and on the numerical keyboard I have a Z in stead of the ", I mean the key downside right, near "#+=" key.
Can I change this?

I should have read the "In is Version" section. The version I just downloaded doesn't have the arrow keys for iOS 6. :-/ Uninstalling until there's a fix/upgrade to include the cursor keys.

A fix has just been posted to this tweak which addresses the CAPS lock issue on 6.1. :)

Still no cursor key support for IOS 6.x yet though.

Oh, thanks for this update/reminder. It was driving me bonkers to not have caps lock. IMNSHO - it's very necessary. :)
