What's New


Here are some of the new features we have added to Keyman 15.0 for Android:

  • Meet Google Play's target API level requirement of 30 (Android 11)
  • Add a menu to adjust keyboard height
  • Add a settings option to change the displayed keyboard name on the spacebar
  • Improve the globe key experience for switching keyboards:

    Keyboard Type # Keyman Keyboards Short press and release to
    In-app 1 Display keyboard picker menu
    In-app 2+ Quickly switch to next Keyman keyboard
    System 1 Quickly switch to previous system keyboard
    System 2+ Quickly switch to next Keyman keyboard
    • Long press the globe key to bring up the keyboard picker menu. On a Keyman system keyboard, the bottom of this menu will also display other enabled system keyboards that can be selected.

    Note: On the lock screen, the keyboard picker menu is not displayed.
