Vietnamese keyboard on iPhone
Your iPhone can type Vietnamese accents with the built-in Vietnamese Telex keyboard. Set it up once, then practice short phrases until the tone keys feel automatic.
Setup steps
Open Settings → General → Keyboard → Keyboards.
Tap Add New Keyboard, choose Vietnamese, then pick Telex.
When typing, tap and hold the globe key and switch to Vietnamese. Type xin chaof to compose Xin chào.
Practice after setup
Do not stop at settings. The hard part is rhythm: base letters, vowel shape, then tone. PengoType turns that into short browser lessons for Vietnamese accents.
