If you speak and text in multiple languages, then the Messages app for iOS has a really neat feature that you might have taken use of, but not really noticed.

The app remembers which keyboard you used to converse with each of your contacts, so that when you resume your conversation, or hop back and forth between different message threads, you get the right keyboard.

So if you’re conversing with your friend in English, and your mother in Spanish, you’ll get a Spanish keyboard whenever you resume conversation with your Mom, but an English keyboard when you reply to your friend.

Of course if you want to use multiple keyboard in a single conversation, you can easily switch by tapping on the Globe key at the bottom, or long press it to see a list of all the languages. To add a new language keyboard, go to Settings > General > Keyboard > Keyboards > Add New Keyboard.

Let us know what you think about this feature in the comments below.
