Implement this method:

Add this in your AppDelegate.m

- (NSArray *)keyCommands {
static NSArray *commands;

static dispatch_once_t once;
dispatch_once(&once, ^{
    UIKeyCommand *const forward = [UIKeyCommand keyCommandWithInput:@"\t" modifierFlags:0 action:@selector(ignore)];
    UIKeyCommand *const backward = [UIKeyCommand keyCommandWithInput:@"\t" modifierFlags:UIKeyModifierShift action:@selector(ignore)];

    commands = @[forward, backward];
});

return commands;
}

Add this method in the ViewController.m or subclass of UITextField in which you want to handle the TAB key event

- (void)ignore {

    NSLog(@"Your Action");
}
