Hi,

After upgrading to the new iOS version on my iPhone 6, whenever I want to start typing in an RTL language (Hebrew) in some app (Messages, WhatsApp, etc.), the blinking cursor is on the left instead of right and even when typing, the text is aligned to left and not to the right...

Do you know if there's a way to fix it? Is it an issue Apple needs to resolve in the next iOS update?

P.s.
The iOS itself (UI) is the English version (Menus, etc.)


Thanks!

Can you take a screenshot of the issue? I added the Hebrew keyboard and typed in Messages and it looked fine (words were right justified, typed right-to-left and cursor was to the left of the words/letters)

Tested on iPad 12.9" and IPhone 6s, both running 10.0.2

For me also.
It happens when you first open the keyboard and it's already on Hebrew (if you change it to English and than back to Hebrew it works fine)

As druh said (I should have mentioned it before), when switching to English and back to Hebrew it works fine, so I guess this is why this happens only when the keyboard is being opened in Hebrew first in the app.

I tried to find more about this on the web, but coudn't find any (just in Hebrew web sites) - Is there a way to post a bug to apple or something? I wanted to post it in their discussion boards, but for some reason the iPhone discussion board doesn't allow me to post a message...
