Description
No permissions for the app, but all options for you!Key facts:
• Full customizable keyboard (not just colors, also key positions and functions!)
• Use all available characters of Android
• No advertising

The Keyboard Designer is a complete keyboard that can be used in all apps. It gives you the freedom to customize them, design a new keyboard yourself or, after purchasing the extended design package, import pre-made keyboards. Not only can you change the colors, but you can also freely arrange the keys and assign functions to them.
This app does not request access to the network - therefore all data remains on your device!
Create your own keyboard for Wear OS by assigning additional keys for terms you use most often.
Hint Wear OS: The keyboard of the smartwatch can not be modified on the smartwatch, please use your connected mobile device to do so and synchronize it with your smartwatch!
A keyboard must match the following requirements:
1. No connection to the internet
A keyboard is used to enter very private data like passwords. Due to this a keyboard must not request a connection to the internet. Only by this it is possible to ensure that no data can be send by the device! Also contacts or similar private data must not be accessed by the keyboard. This means: no permissions for the app!
2. Individual adjustments
The keyboard is the most used app on a mobile device. Therefore ist must be perfectly adjustable to the needs of the user! The position of the keys, it dimensions, labels, colors and borders do define the look. By the assignment of a powerfull function the user can enter a text very fast. So with this app you can create the keyboard like you need it. This means: all options to you!
3. Easy usage
As the screen size is very limited, entering a text is not easy. The present functions and their smart accessability allow the usage even in hard conditions (walk with mobile device in one hand and a coffee in the other) or for handicaped people. An edit bar shows the entered letters in a hughe way and allows to manipulate them directly. If it is not obvious which key was pressed, a resized view of the keyboard is shown with big keys. And if you ever want to do any changes on the keyboard, you can hit a key to open the designer and make it so!
4. Speed
A keyboard must react on a keypress very fast - otherwise errors are the logical consequence. This app does not use the functions to implement a keyboard that are provided by the system, but it shows all keys in a graphic. If a key is touched, its assigned function is send to the editor. Its very fast due to this simplified structure.
After the installation some example designs are shown. They alread contain all necessary keys and can be used or modified (e.g. to add your own special characters like umlauts, glyphs, change duration of pressed keys or make big keys). It is also possible to make completely new designs.
If you want you can purchase the Extended Design Package within the app. This will provide you additional features like export, import, rounded keys, color gradients and so on. You find more information on the website https://comparepackages.keyboarddesigner.com/

HINT: When the keyboard is selected, a hint is shown by the system, that the keyboard can collect data. This is shown even when a keyboard has no internet connection and it cannot send any data!

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

User's Reivew
4 ★It seems fine overall, but i think its lacking the feature im looking for. Im trying to find a keyboard that can actively type color coded symbols. Not just have the keys be coloured. Like if i were to type a 1, it would be yellow or in italics on a pdf.
5 ★Just wanted to thank you for updating the app and adding new features! edit: feature idea: letter or n-gram frequency tracker to help with user-specific layout optimisation. there's probably apps for this but i feel it would be fitting for this app since it can run on various devices
5 ★Use this app to create and customise keyboard layouts EXACTLY the way you want +your privacy is protected as no internet permission (all your apps will still work normally but developer can't sell "you" to advertisers like many keyboards do) & there are NO ads! Ignore most low ratings by people haven't taken a little time to understand how to create keyboards. You can even create them for your smartwatch. Buy the extended options for even more customisation & share your keyboards with friends
5 ★The only keyboard I've found that's almost as good as Hacker's Keyboard
5 ★Very customizable and google spyware resistant but... I cant find an emoji keyboard,(update: got the emoji keyboard thank you Gerrit Humberg) and apostrophy words should take priority in autocorrect
5 ★Great keyboard designing app! But can you add the Keyboard Saving into the device?
5 ★The app is very capable. VERY capable. I has no adds, is free aside from a few select features, requests no permissions and collects no data. The UI has a steep learning curve, but it gets the job done and is very functional once you learn it. Great app.
5 ★Keyboard Designer is infinitely configurable, and in spite of this, is very robust and elegantly architected. I bought both Extended packages for a ridiculously low price. It’s a bit of a slog getting some fluency with the settings, but if you want a keyboard to look and act the way you want it, it’s worth it (for a geek like me). The comprehensive documentation helps you get through architecture/function boot camp, and get airborne, -if you put in your time pounding on it. Took me a few days.
3 ★Works as a keyboard. No gesture typing. Ugly and clunky interface. Lack of prediction is annoying. Paid version is required to download any keyboards. Default keyboard upon install looks ugly with text overlapping each other on the keys. Could use a lot of work.
5 ★great app, you can turn it into your dream keyboard.
