Comments on Custom Keyboard for Android for Android

★★★★★ Alex Lippolt · Apr 26, 2024

This app is FANTASTIC. I am currently working on a new language, Zakrotian (Lo L∩ɴcweɴ S̄∩ċroṫeṫ), and, because it uses a few symbols not used in english, I used this app to make The Zakrotian Keyboard. Now I can type in Zakrotian!

★★★★☆ Ajay S · Dec 9, 2024

📌 Please add option for switching to other keyboards too for example we can switch keyboards in G board when holding space bar, every time I have to go settings and another problem is the keys structure is different from common boards and typing is not smooth, these three things should be improved, and it'll become a great keyboard 🌟

★★★★★ Hakim (Electro Hiddens) · Sep 14, 2025

This is what we call "custom" keyboard. Fully controlled by the user. Thank you Gr8ly

★★☆☆☆ Titan Speakerman · Oct 6, 2023

It's literally perfect! But when I try to use the Keyboard it lags so much. Also, It constantly crashes (The app and the keyboard). One last problem is the Keyboard height (Make it adjustable) Also if I try to use to Keyboard's keys it doesn't really work. I have to tap a couple of times to type a letter... Please fix these problems. It could've been a 5 star...

★★☆☆☆ Mason Rundall (Rin) · Jan 15, 2024

It was working fine until an update, and it just doesn't work at all? I can open the app and all but I can't use it as a keyboard...

★★☆☆☆ Arqam Khawaja · Dec 6, 2023

This app was worthy, but due to recent updates now it became useless. I crash every time. We can't make any keyboard.

★★☆☆☆ Victori Bass · Nov 24, 2023

The upgrade is awful! This app used to be great but since the upgrade you can't build custom keyboards many of the letters show as question marks in text and the app lags upon opening it. I have used it as my default keyboard but will now have to uninstall it until a new upgrade comes along. It has not gotten better with the improvements but worst.

★★☆☆☆ Johnkarl Mancio · May 8, 2026
