Nice just bought early access with my play credits I'll be using it every day to test it out 😃 thanks I really wanted a keyboard like this!

Thanks for all the feedback! Much appreciated

Are we going to get some juicy updates for 2020?
As with some previous reports (! Inserting /, _ inserting %, inserting numbers removing previous inputs) * inserts ! And pressing the space acts more like a new line/enter.

Has anyone had any luck getting ahold of the dev? I really wanna buy this keyboard but not if they've given up development.

I'd suggest you to stay away, since the app has been long forgotten already, and it's not quite useful nor usable in the state it currently is.

It was just updated 2 weeks ago on iOS so it looks like it's still being worked on in some capacity.

Swipe won't be in the initial release, but may come at a later date depending on how popular it is. It's a difficult gesture to get right, especially for one developer.

What's the next step, seeing a beta release in the Play Store within a week or two?
ofcourse this will be available on the razer Phone right ? 🙂

Should be for everyone, not device locked.
I have a Razer Phone 1 if you need more maximizing.
Last week he said a couple weeks, that means end of next week should be the release of the app.

Don't take that as gospel. It's why so many companies have stopped giving dates for things.

You should work with razer on this to be the default keyboard on future razer phones or work with third party keyboard makers to add chroma support


Thanks! It would be great if that was the case, but we will see...
I'm will to test it out if need anyone else for beta testing! So excited for this!

Cries in iOS. :slightly_sad:


It's available on iOS also
@njbmartin
I can't get to the second page of characters, and I cannot disable vibrate when typing. Are there any plans to fix this in the near future? I understand it is in beta but obviously I need to be able to use some of those characters 🙂

Don't forget to add the numbers too.

What's with the wave icon on the keyboard top bar. Pressing it does nothing?
Bought and installed this tonight. The three buttons on the top don't seem to work or do anything. The keyboard is very pretty but settings seem to be limited and auto correct isnt the greatest. I hope you keep working on this though. Very cool project.

Where are you seeing a settings button?
Every time I see this thread popup I get excited thinking that I can plug my chroma mat (keyboard device according to Android) to my phone and finally control the colors. Then see its just the software keyboard. 😞
downloaded now, used my Google Opinion Rewards App Money to get this, few problems/annoyance 1) no emoji button 2) no autocorrect (just good to have most the time) 3) font feels a little smaller. but its beta and i get that! love it so far other then thoses 3 things (:

All feedback is certainly welcome and only makes it better, so thank you!

Is there a way to turn off the keyboard sound at all?
as for me, gboard is the best keyboard for android and ios with a lot of useful settings such as translator, themes etc.
