In objective-c I can just say the following. 

[self.promoTextField setKeyboardType:UIKeyboardTypeEmailAddress];

I tried googling it but just get ways to do it in objective-c.

Try this :

Swift 3

self.promoTextField.keyboardType = UIKeyboardType.emailAddress

Swift < 3

self.promoTextField.keyboardType = UIKeyboardType.EmailAddress
