Which build of M58 has this change? I have a Chromebook on Chrome 58.0.3029.31 dev (Platform 9334.18.0 (Official Build) dev-channel-cyan Firmware Google_Cyan.7287.57.100) and I'm not seeing chrome.virtualKeyboard or chrome.virtualKeyboard.restrictFeatures. I also checked Chrome Canary Version 59.0.3054.0 (Official Build) canary (64-bit) on macOS and didn't see the API available in the app window. Do the experimental APIs need to be enabled for this to work? Are there any restrictions on where this API can be called from? (background page, app page, etc)

That build should have it. It will only work for kiosk apps. Also, for now you should set all of the features to "false" |

Duping this, but since the other bug is restricted, we're adding a new API in M58/59 for this. It's available already on dev channel for you to test out: chrome.virtualKeyboard.restrictFeatures({ autoCompleteEnabled: false. autoCorrectEnabled: false, spellCheckEnabled: false, voiceInputEnabled: false, handwritingEnabled: false });
