Is it possible to detect external keyboard input start / end ?

Hello developers !


I am currently working on a text-related app and I would like to know whether there would exist an iOS API (or event or KVO) that could make the app detect when the user taps on an external keyboard key so that the text can be inputed automatically, without the prior need for the user to tap on a text-field ? I think this feature could be super-great, especially with the iPad Pro's Smart Keyboard.


Thanks for your answers !
