It also allows enlarging of the emojis, allowing for easier access and faster method of displaying your emotions on your messages.

Apart from customizing the size of the keys, the app comes with several themes that changes the color of the letters on the key as well as its background. The color scheme used in these themes are optimized for greater visibility, allowing only a small margin of error when typing If none of the built-in themes caught your eye, the app also allows color customization based on your own preference.

Another feature of the keyboard replacer is the numeric keypad that positions numbers like the keypad of old phones, allowing for easy number input. Gestures are also allowed on the app, which makes typing a whole lot faster. The app also supports several international languages such as French, German ad Spanish.
