Can't dismiss keyboard on iPad (Solution inside)

Sometimes, you see the following code of dismissing keyboard not working on iPad but working on iPhone:

[_textField resignFirstResponder];

That's because a modal view in UIModalPresentationFormSheet mode on iPad ignores it by default.


To let it work, we need to add this method into your view controller:

- (BOOL)disablesAutomaticKeyboardDismissal {
    return NO;
}

If your view controller is in a navigation controller, add this method into your customised navigation controller.

- (BOOL)disablesAutomaticKeyboardDismissal {

    return [self.topViewController disablesAutomaticKeyboardDismissal];

}
