This contradicts the privacy statement on the App Store. Ie it is not the app, but the actual developer who can transmit sensitive information. If the developer is involved, that implies outside of the phone, not contained within the phone exclusively for app functionality. ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2025-10-03* Doesnt fubction like a larger version of the default keyboard. Auto correct is nonexistent. Basically all it does is increase the letter size on each key. ### 2/5 — needs improvement *2026-01-25* I am visually impaired and looking for a keyboard that can make bigger keys with high contrast. this keyboard doesn’t allow for haptic feedback unless you allow full access, and even with full access, it doesn’t seem to include auto correction as it claims. The high contrast features are also problematic because they display a stark white color behind the keys. This creates a sort of light static, which makes it difficult to use the keyboard with high contrast. The best option for my particular eyes is the dark theme, but even that isn’t ideal. disappointing since this is an app you have to pay for when there are other apps that are free that offer essentially all of the same things this app does. ### 3/5 — Guter Ansatz *2026-05-24* Ich würde mir noch wünschen das es andere Desgins gäbe etwa Liquid Glas wie im aktuellen ios Bdtriebsystem. Aßerdem wäre gut wenn man den Courser über die Leertste starten könnte und das Keyboard sich dann in ein Trackpad verwandeln würde eie bei der orginal ios Tastatur eben. ### 3/5 — Gute Idee mit Schwächen *2025-08-19* Ich habe die App gekauft, um als Alternative für die selbst auf dem ProMax-Modell des Iphone zu kleinen Tasten eine bessere Bedienbarkeit zu bekommen. Leider erfüllt die App dies nicht. Dabei hat sie noch Nachteile, die die normale Tastatur nicht aufweist. - es scheint kein "ß" zu geben. - Die Umlaute lassen sich nicht unter den Primärbuchstaben als Zweitbelegung verstecken, um Platz zu sparen - der Punkt kann nicht als Doppelklick der Space-Taste abgebildete werden. Ich frage mich ernsthaft, warum das den Entwicklern nich auffällt **Developer response:** Hallo, vielen Dank für Ihr ausführliches Feedback und Ihre hilfreichen Vorschläge! Aufgrund Ihrer Anregungen haben wir die genannten Punkte bereits in der Version 1.2.1 umgesetzt, die Sie jetzt im App Store aktualisieren können: In den Tastatureinstellungen (in der Haupt-App) können Sie aktivieren, dass ein Doppeltippen der Leertaste automatisch einen Punkt setzt. Wir haben den Buchstaben ß ergänzt – er ist nun per Long Press auf der Taste „s“ verfügbar (sowie „SS“ in Großbuchstaben). Zusätzlich haben wir ein neues Layout hinzugefügt: „Deutsch (ohne Umlaute)“, falls Sie die Tastatur ohne die Umlaut-Tasten nutzen möchten. Nochmals vielen Dank für Ihre Unterstützung und Ihre Ideen! ### 5/5 — Worth the money *2026-05-25* It does exactly what it is supposed to. For years I’ve struggled with hitting the wrong keys because the keyboard is too small. I wish I’d found this keyboard sooner. The corrective text is the best I’ve seen. My only complaint is I wish there was different coloured keyboards for interest ### 5/5 — Arnaque *2026-01-27* Configuré en français, ne propose même pas le mot 'Bonjour'... A fuir. Je suis obligé de mettre une étoile, une de trop. ### 5/5 — Brilliant *2025-10-16* I really needed a keyboard just like this. Can I please a request the possibility for even larger keys and text (perhaps by allowing for taller keys/letters)? Otherwise pretty much perfect, thank you! ### 5/5 — Sehr Gut *2025-10-12* ...aber warum dieser störende Strich unter jeder Zahl und Buchstaben? Zweckmäßigkeit vor Schönheit😀 ### 5/5 — Perfect keyboard *2025-09-20* I really love this app! The larger keys make it so much easier for me to see the letters, and it was super simple to start using right away. It makes typing much more comfortable and stress-free. Highly recommend! ## Most praised reviews (4 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — App *2025-09-01* Très pratique pour des personnes qui ont des gros doigts; continuez votre bon travail 👍. **Developer response:** Merci pour votre avis — nous espérons que vous en profitez ! ### 5/5 — Great app / requesting a future *2025-08-16* This is a great app but when im using this keyboard on my ipad mini 5 theres no mic phone option can you please ad this to the ipad mini and can you ad suport for voice over where when im typing with voice over before selection a letter like b the screen reader says the letter b but wont say a word like bravo so just to make sure im typing the correct letters i have to havor over the letters just to hear them again and again other then that its a great key borad **Developer response:** Thanks for the kind words and thoughtful feedback—we hope you’re enjoying The Big Keyboard! We’ll review adding the microphone key on iPad mini 5 and improving VoiceOver behavior (speaking letters as you hover) to see what we can include in future updates. Thanks again for helping us improve. ### 5/5 — Made texting way less frustrating - I don’t have the perfect vision *2025-07-15* I don’t have perfect vision and always found myself squinting or hitting the wrong keys on the default keyboard. This app made a big difference. The text is way bigger (without blowing up the whole keyboard), and I can finally type without second-guessing every word. It also has arrow keys, a numeric pad, and all the emojis, which is honestly more useful than I expected. It just works—no weird settings or confusing setup. If you’re tired of tiny letters and constant typos, this fixes that. **Developer response:** Thanks for your review — we hope you're enjoying it! ### 5/5 — Excellent keyboard *2025-06-11* Perfect for my eyesight! My favorite feature is the high contrast colors. **Developer response:** Thanks for your review — we hope you're enjoying it! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
