OmniKeys turns the iPhone keyboard into a mechanical one — and lets a business request a payment from any conversation. iOS 27 and iPadOS 27. At rest it looks like the keyboard you already know: plain glass keys sitting on a plate. Press one and the switch underneath lights up, the color rises through the cap, and a ripple runs out to the keys around it. Lift, and it fades back. TYPES LIKE STOCK - Apple's key sizes and spacing - Glide typing — swipe across letters and lift - Predictions and autocorrect that learn your words and never repeat a correction you undo - Auto-capitalise, caps lock, press-and-hold delete - One globe key, where iOS puts it FEELS LIKE HARDWARE - Glass keycaps over lit switches with visible stems — choose Crystal, Frosted or Milky - Keys travel down as you press; harder press, deeper travel - Depth and tilt: the board shifts its highlights as you move the phone - Per-key RGB — every key its own color, or one color across the board SOUNDS AND FEEL - Five switch sound kits, from a dry click to marimba - Every key plays a note in a musical scale, so typing never sounds wrong - Haptic styles from soft to sharp, stronger on delete REQUEST A PAYMENT WITH OMNIPAY For businesses with an OmniPay merchant account. Press and hold the $ key to open the Request panel, set an amount, and OmniKeys puts a signed OmniPay payment link into whatever you're typing — Messages, WhatsApp, email, anywhere. The person you send it to pays on OmniPay's secure web page by bank transfer with Face ID or Touch ID; no app is required to pay. OmniKeys also includes an iMessage app that sends the same request as a card in Messages. Requests are signed on your phone with your merchant key; OmniKeys itself never moves money. Requires Full Access and an OmniPay merchant account. Payments are processed by OmniPay Solutions (omnipossolution.com). WRITE WITH OMNIKEYS On iPhones with Apple Intelligence, proofread, rewrite or summarise what you've written using the on-device model. Nothing leaves the phone. YOURS TO SET Pick a lighting mode — Reactive, Wave, Pulse or Static — and a colour, then set your key height, spacing, glass level and travel in the app. The keyboard follows. PRIVATE Nothing you type is collected, stored or sent anywhere by OmniKeys. Predictions and autocorrect run on your phone. Full Access is used for key sounds and to read your OmniPay merchant settings; typing works without it. A payment request link is only created when you press and hold $ and tap Request. From OmniPay Solutions.

Keyfeel turns your iPhone keyboard into a mechanical one. Every key press has its own sound and haptic, the board lights up the way you set it, and your clipboard history sits right inside the keyboard. PICK YOUR SWITCH Choose from 8 switches across three kinds: linear (smooth all the way down), tactile (a soft bump, quieter) and clicky (a sharp, loud click). Each one sounds and feels different. Turn the sound and the haptic up or down on their own dials. LIGHT IT UP Four glow effects: Static, Wave, Reactive and Breathe. Light the board from under the keys or through the legends, pick a color or go rainbow, and set the brightness. 12 BOARDS Keycap sets from soft Milk to dark Midnight. Three boards are free to keep. Pro opens all 12. CLIPBOARD HISTORY, IN THE KEYBOARD Tap Paste and Keyfeel keeps the clip. Open the clipboard panel to paste it again later, pin the ones you reuse, delete the rest. The free version keeps up to 60 clips, Pro keeps 200, and pinned clips always stay. Keyfeel never reads your clipboard until you tap Paste. TYPE THE WAY YOU LIKE Swipe to type, word suggestions, a one-handed mode for the left or right hand, emoji and kaomoji, and an optional number row. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no ads, no analytics, and no network requests. Nothing you type leaves your iPhone. Try it in Airplane Mode. Keyfeel works without Full Access: you can type, swipe and use suggestions with your chosen board. Allowing Full Access adds the switch sounds, haptics and clipboard history, because iOS only lets a keyboard play custom sound and haptics with Full Access. KEYFEEL PRO Pro opens all 12 boards and keeps up to 200 clips. Yearly, with a 7-day free trial Monthly Lifetime, one-time purchase Prices are shown in the App Store and vary by region. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel them in your Apple Account settings.
