Why would you want to detect each key that is pressed?

you need to add more detail to your question so people know how to help.

The textField:shouldChangeCharactersInRange:replacementString: method will be called on the UITextField delegate object for every single key press.

of course that's not true! don't bother, that's a wrong answer. some keys are not working with this method (backspace, return, etc...). proper solution is to create your own implementation of the UIKeyInput protocol. you can find a good example here:
