What's New in ℂKey

1.11

December 21, 2016

This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon. Version 1.11 - big fixes come in small updates. The big things: • Unicode search results now appear live! :D - Known issue: presses may act oddly while search results are being added. :( • Are you a pro spy, needing to take notes while hiding in cupboards? Fear not, for key clicks can now be muted! • Fixed the keyboard's dark appearance! - Sorry to any users who encountered this regression for not being able to fix this sooner; I'll try to be more careful in the future to prevent this sort of issue making it out in the first place. The notable things: • Added a jump option to the popup that displays after long-pressing a search result, to show the result in context. The little things: • Editing a pane's name now temporarily hides the pane's visibility toggle, to give more room. • Improved the reliability of the keyboard's ‘hide pane list’ swipe gesture. (Specifically, the background behind the list now also captures the swipe) The foreshadowing: • I've identified that most of the keyboard's loading time is not down to loading data, but constructing/rendering the views. Armed with this knowledge, I'm more prepared than ever to achieve snappy load times! • I'm planning on bumping the version number up to 2, in one of the next couple of updates. This should come with a big increase in customisability.

Fix it

If i hold a key it sends me out fix it

A hidden gem

This is the only developer to allow users to alter individual characters. That's super useful when I have to add (U+200E) Left-to-Right Mark, to each key.
Other apps don't consider this a necessary option.

Love it

Works great! Love having a custom keyboard with symbols in. Super convenient

new app paid

Gets the job done

It doesn’t have the best UI, but it is the only app I can find that lets you really have a customizable keyboard. Rated it 5 stars to get it up the charts even if my review doesn’t count for much.
