Tkinter keyboard in output

The iOS keyboard doesn’t show when I click in the text entry box - what am I missing?

from tkinter import *

root = Tk() 
…
text_input = Entry(root)
text_input.pack(side=LEFT, fill='x', expand=True)
…
root.mainloop()

the GUI output is meant for desktops more than mobiles. Since you’ve only just started the code, I would suggest just creating a website instead using https://replit.com/new/html. Maybe request for mobile keyboards to appear in the output tab in the support forum

Was hoping I was just missing some event to make the iOS keyboard pop up! Thanks anyway - have put in a support ticket.
*update: note that it works OK with a bluetooth keyboard attached to the iPhone, so nothing to say it can’t work.

The same situation on Android. This is a bug that should be fixed, because Replit is created to test how your code idea works from the phone on the road, and it’s not always possible to have a real keyboard with you on the way, connected via bluetooth.
