Default make custom keyboard (possible to be used on all over the iphone system)

I want to make a new keyboard layout, which can be used exactly like pre-installed keyboards on iphone.
So I want my keyboard layout can be used on all over the iphone system.

There are plenty of apps that can install custom keyboard of their own.
for example, some apps called emoji, something like that.
once I download one of them and open it, the app add new keyboard layout on system.
You can see it on the Setting > General > International > Keyboard.
And you can use it any apps in iphone.

I really wanna make my own layout.
But the problem is, i have no idea how to make my layout on the system.

I don't want it to be used on just one app, but on entire system.

Please please help me.
Thank you in advance.

If your intention is for your custom keyboard to be used in ALL apps on the iPhone, rather than just your own, then you can't do this on a non-jailbroken device as far as I am aware.

To create a custom keyboard for use in your app alone, you need to search this forum as this topic has been covered many times.

One of them is "free emoji!" by Awesomest Software.
It is free app, so you can find out how it works.

I think you will find that the emoji keyboard is a exception added in for the Japanese users.

How are iPhone emoji apps made? - Stack Overflow

What you are wanting to do cannot be done as far as I am aware.

Yeah, that's what i was asking.
and i didn't know that emoji keyboard was just hidden.
I thought I can add keyboard by the same way to add emoji.
