Those are two entirely different questions. What exactly do you want to know? – JustSid Nov 17 '12 at 19:00

[textView baseWritingDirectionForPosition:[textView beginningOfDocument] inDirection:UITextStorageDirectionForward] == UITextWritingDirectionRightToLeft
Should return true if the UITextView is right-to-left, and false otherwise.
Further documentation can be found here, if you need it!

In answer to your other question, you can get the keyboard language used from UITextInputMode docs: http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/uikit/reference/UITextInputMode_Class/Reference/Reference.html

This solution worked better for me
[NSLocale characterDirectionForLanguage:self.textView.textInputMode.primaryLanguage] == NSLocaleLanguageDirectionRightToLeft
