Many keyboards are boring. Some track what you type. Plenty just don't work. Klava ain’t any of that. Klava keyboard brings together smart above-key predictions, stunning themes, sick features and rock-solid privacy. And a bunch of other cool stuff (that you can customise or turn on / off). What Klava has that others don’t: - Smart above-key and above-keyboard suggestions that you can flick up. Like the good ol’ BlackBerry days - Privacy. Klava learns as you type, but what you type doesn’t ever leave the device. As it should be. Keep what's yours, we don't want to know that! - Beautiful themes, each with unique features. We got sleek modern themes. We got nostalgic themes, true classics even. We got more themes cooking as you are reading this - App shortcuts – a true revolution! Assign apps to keys & then jump to the app of your choice by simply long-pressing the key - High personalisation. Customise font size, colours, buttons and so on. Make Klava what you want it to be - Gestures that feel awesome. Our favourite: swipe left across the keyboard to delete words. Or set a custom action to the 'swipe right' gesture! - Autocorrect is here, plus text navigation with Cursor Mode via WASD or a joystick in some themes. It’s super nice - Built-in emojis. What’s more, type things like :) or :phone to get an instant emoji suggestion. Truly :fire (can't put emojis here, imagine one!) - You can switch keyboard layouts by simply holding the spacebar, smooth as heck - We could go on, but that’s probably enough for the App Store page. Last thing: we are releasing major updates for Klava at least every month, so expect more themes, features, languages and just plain new & nice stuff regularly Klava currently supports 25+ languages with more in the making: - English (US/GB) - Spanish (Español) - French (Français) - German (Deutsch) - Dutch (Nederlands) - Italian (Italiano) - Portuguese (Português) - Russian (Русский) - Finnish (Suomi) - Hungarian (Magyar) - Polish (Polski) - Romanian (Română) - Swedish (Svenska) - Bulgarian (Български) - Indonesian (Bahasa Indonesia) - Czech (Čeština) - Vietnamese (Tiếng Việt) - Arabic - Danish (Dansk)* - Croatian (Hrvatski)* - Norwegian (Norsk)* - Turkish (Türkçe)* - Greek (Ελληνικά)* - Serbian (Српски)* - Ukrainian (Українська)* - Hebrew* - Thai (ไทย)* *These languages don't support predictions above keys just yet, but you can type in your favourite themes in your language's layout!
