Pick a keyboard style, choose colors, upload a background image, add key icons, show or hide key text, and adjust the keyboard lift so it sits where you want it. The keyboard includes emoji and quick GIF-style reaction text, plus controls for removing or locking selected letters. Locked keys can optionally use the phone passcode or biometric authentication before typing. Quick settings are available from the keyboard by swiping up, so users can jump back to the main settings screen and adjust lift or floating mode faster. Key features: - Custom keyboard themes and uploaded backgrounds - Floating or docked keyboard layout - Key text, text color, and key picture controls - Emoji and GIF-style reaction shortcuts - Remove or lock selected letters - Optional phone authentication for locked keys - Swipe-up quick settings - Notification permission and App Store update shortcut Privacy note: Kbrd stores keyboard settings locally and in the app group shared with the keyboard extension.

“When did I last do this?” “Am I doing it a little too often?” “Is it about time to do it again?” Koroai helps you record everyday activities and understand their frequency and intervals. “Koroai” is a Japanese word that means “the right time” or “just the right moment.” Whether you want to build a habit, adjust how often you do something, or simply keep a record, Koroai lets you choose a pace that works for you. ■ See how long it has been Quickly check how many days have passed since the last record for each item. ■ Set your own guidelines Create guidelines such as “every few days,” “a few times per week,” or “a few times per month.” These guidelines are not used to judge success or failure. They are simply there to help you decide what to do next. ■ Review your history Use the monthly calendar to see when each activity was recorded. ■ Add comments and photos Optionally attach a comment or a photo from your device to each record. ■ Get gentle reminders Receive a local notification when an item may be approaching the interval you set. You can also enable an optional daily recording reminder. ■ Back up your records Export your items, records, comments, and settings as a backup file and restore them later. Photos themselves are not included in backup files. ■ No account required Your records are stored locally on your device. No sign-up or login is required. Find a pace that feels right, without judging yourself. Koroai is a simple record-keeping app designed to support your everyday decisions.
