1. Why are you declaring the custom keyboard in the UITabBarController class ? You can declare it in the view controller that is attached to that particular tabBarItem. If you add it to the that view controller, I am sure you can just make it resignFirstResponder or removeFromSuperView and manipulate it as you want.

2. Or you can just create a separate class for your customKeyboard, and add it along with your other classes. Simply include that class and create objects in other view controllers to manipulate them, and then release them. This is very easy and it is better programming compared to your approach, as at a later point of time, if you need to make changes or release 2.0 version of your app, it will come in handy and save some development time !
