What is Keyboardy?
Keyboardy is an Arabic and English keyboard for Android and iPhone that suggests videos, stickers and GIFs while you type. It works in any app with a text field, and also includes Arabic diacritics, a clipboard, shortcuts and themes.
Is Keyboardy free?
Yes, Keyboardy is free and all core typing and media features work without a subscription. An optional subscription unlocks additional features.
Does Keyboardy record what I type?
No, Keyboardy does not store or transmit what you type. The only thing sent to the server is a search term while the media row is open, because that is what returns results — and it is not tied to your identity.
Which languages does Keyboardy support?
Keyboardy supports Arabic and English with full layouts, switchable from a single key. The Arabic layout includes a built-in diacritics key, and media search works in both languages.
How do I enable Keyboardy on Android?
Install the app, open it, and it walks you to your keyboard settings to enable Keyboardy and set it as your default. After that you switch to it with the globe key or the keyboard icon in any conversation.
How do I enable Keyboardy on iPhone?
Go to Settings → General → Keyboard → Keyboards → Add New Keyboard and choose Keyboardy. For media to work you also need to turn on Allow Full Access, which is what lets the keyboard fetch stickers and videos.
Why does it need Full Access on iPhone?
Full Access is required because iOS blocks keyboards from using the network without it, and without the network there are no stickers, GIFs or videos to show. Without it the keyboard still works for ordinary typing.
How is Keyboardy different from Gboard or SwiftKey?
The main difference is that Keyboardy is built for Arabic first and puts Arabic-searchable videos and stickers inside the keyboard. Gboard and SwiftKey treat Arabic as an additional language and their media search is primarily English.
Does it work with WhatsApp and Instagram?
Yes, Keyboardy is a system-level keyboard, so it works in any app: WhatsApp, Instagram, Telegram, Snapchat, Messages and Notes.
Does it work offline?
Typing, diacritics, suggestions, clipboard and shortcuts all work offline. Media — videos, stickers and GIFs — needs a connection because it is loaded from the server.
