Customizing Your Domain Extensions Shortcut
The English (US) keyboard on your iPhone or iPad contains the most popular top-level domains: .com, .net, .org, .edu, and .us. However, you’re not limited to just these TLDs.

.com
.edu
.net
.org
.usWhen you add other keyboards from Apple on your iPhone or iPad, you may see more top-level domains, including generic top-level domains (gTLDs), country code top-level domains (ccTLDs), sponsored top-level domains (sTLDs), and even internationalized top-level domains (IDN ccTLDs) that use non-Latin character sets.
- gTLDs: The biggest ones are .com, .net, and .org, but you can also add .mobi and .info.
- sTLDs: You won’t get .gov or .mil, but you can acquire .cat, which highlights the Catalan language.
- ccTLDs: This is the bulk of what you can add to complement .us, such as .de (Germany), .jp (Japan), and .uk (United Kingdom).
- IDN ccTLDs: There are quite a few of these as well, including any TLDs in the list below that aren’t using Latin character sets.
All the extra keyboards on your iPhone or iPad that contain a TLD shortcut will have the five main U.S.-based extensions from the English (US) keyboard. Some will also include additional TLDs. Here’s the complete list:

RohingyaTo add any of the keyboards listed above to your iPhone or iPad, go to Settings » General » Keyboard » Keyboards » Add New Keyboard. Then, simply select a keyboard that gives you the TLDs you want to add to your arsenal.
Once you’ve added all the keyboards you need, test your shortcut on the English (US) keyboard, which will now include all TLDs from the other keyboards you installed. Here’s a before and after of my keyboard, which showcases how much you can stuff into this shortcut:
Note that some keyboards have multiple versions available, and not all versions will have the TLD shortcut. Versions without it include the Pinyin 10 Key (Chinese) and Kana (Japan) keyboards, as well as any Handwriting and Stroke versions.
