title: Manager.stateForKeyboard()
---
## Summary
The **`stateForKeyboard()`** method returns the current state of availability for a keyboard.
**Deprecated**, as keyboards and lexical models are no longer directly downloaded in favor of packages. Refer to [`ResourceFileManager.shared.installState()`](../ResourceFileManager/installState)
## Syntax
``` swift
Manager.stateForKeyboard(keyboardID: String)
```
### Parameter
`keyboardID`
: ID of the keyboard.
### Returns
Returns the keyboard state: `downloading`, `needsDownload`, `needsUpdate`, or `upToDate`.
## Description
This syntax can be used for getting the state of a keyboard.
## Examples
### Example: Using `stateForKeyboard()`
The following script illustrates the use of `stateForKeyboard()`:
``` swift
let kbState = Manager.shared.stateForKeyboard(withID: kb.id)
if kbState == .needsUpdate {
if !kbIDs.contains(kb.id) {
kbIDs.insert(kb.id)
updateQueue!.append(kb)
}
}
```
## History
Deprecated in Keyman Engine for iPhone and iPad 14.0.
