The virtual keyboard should appear with all the keys indicated and the typed text should appear while typing.

That’s intended – they don’t simulate a real keyboard. It wouldn’t be convenient to keep that up-to-date through iOS/Android versions and exactly match the device’s UI.

There is no reason to emulate a real keyboard. Your game would not be able to distinguish between the user doing keyboard events vs clicking on the keyboard UI anyway.
