Keybuild

Best keyboard for iOS.

This is nothing for regular users, but if you like to tinker and customizing your stuff, this is the right app you. You can set longpress, shift and shift+longpress actions for every key (e.g. Shift backspace for delete), you can make multiple keyboards and link them, like the iOS default keyboard does wirh spwcial characters, you cam define your lqyout just how you like it. Fancy a keyboard with only one row? Keybuild got you. Feel free to do whatever. You want to have .,: and ; on one key to save space? Keybuild got you! This app is pure awesome!

Not listed in third party keyboards. No direct access to support in app. Just useless for now. Maybe it’s my personal problem. But be aware.

Finally able to make it work… took forever to figure out how to add the keyboard. Still figuring out the app now… trying to figure out how to remove the shift function all together

It would be nice if a 3D press option could be added to have more than just upper and lowercase letters for a single key. Also, maybe in the future support for moving the cursor forward and backward words similar to vim would be cool to see. And auto correction if that is possible because it doesn’t work on mine. Thanks

App does everything it says it does and more but I wish the sga symbols where included

Does the app support swipe typing, auto corrections? iPad default layout doesn’t seem to support basic extra features like those

For a while now I've beed designing keyboard layouts with higher efficiency than QWERTY, like TEIOUM, TRHIEO, and more recently, Quartet. I've been trying to find an app that could actually let me use the layouts to test them, but the only apps I found weren't that great or made you pay to use the outside of the app, often with higher prices than the 3.99$USD this costed, so eventually I tried this, and not only was I able to use my keyboard layouts, I was even able to link between various keyboards, for symbols, etc, add things like emojis, and even add keys which would type multiple keys, which would have saved me thousands of keystrokes if I had been using them in the past, since I often do a lot of manual database management. Overall, I'd recommend this to anyone who needs a truly custom keyboard in one way or another. 10/10. - PF

I can't BELIEVE I went so long not knowing this app exists. I'm a language nerd, and it's always driven me crazy that almost none of the iOS keyboards for various languages have dedicated keys for diacritic marks (the way the German keyboard has keys for umlauts), so I made a modified version of the Portuguese keyboard that has keys for the tilde, circumflex, and acute accents, using Unicode combination characters that I copied from Wikipedia. I was worried it would be a huge headache, or that the app wouldn't even support extended Unicode, but it only took me like 15 minutes. The interface is so simple, and incredibly easy to use considering how flexible it is; my use for it has been pretty straightforward so far, but it really feels like it offers a staggering amount of customizability without having to navigate a labrynth of submenus. It did crash once the first time I converted a text stack into a key stack, but it autosaved my changes, and that was the only real glitch I encountered. I'm no app developer, but this seems like a masterpiece of GUI design compared to the loads of other apps that manage to overcomplicate simple tasks or overlook obvious use-cases. Just an amazing app, and absolutely worth the cup-of-coffee price.

Would like to be able to move or change all the other keys such as “upper case, delete, return, 123, globe,” etc… if you can idk how to. Otherwise pretty good app
