# Keyboard doesn't return to your app on iOS 26.4

> Fix the Superwhisper keyboard not returning you to your app on iOS 26.4. Swipe back manually after you start dictation.

<Note>
  This page applies only to Superwhisper on iOS. macOS and Windows are not affected.
</Note>

## The fix

After you tap the Superwhisper keyboard button to start dictation, swipe back to your app yourself. iOS 26.4 no longer lets third-party keyboards return you to the previous app automatically.

## What changed

Apple's iOS 26.4 update changed how third-party keyboards work. Superwhisper used to return you to your app after you started dictation. That behavior is no longer available.

Your [modes](/docs/modes/modes) still work as before. This includes **Message**, **Mail**, **Note**, and any custom modes.

<Tip>
  Explore the [built-in modes](/docs/modes/modes) to find the ones that fit your common tasks. You can also [create custom modes](/docs/modes/custom) for specific workflows.
