A horizontally scrolling function-key row sits on top of a normal layout — exactly like the extra-keys bar in a terminal app.

Designed for developers, SSH and terminal users, writers, and power users who miss real Esc, Tab, Ctrl, and arrow keys on mobile.

🚀 Function row
• Esc, Tab, Ctrl, Alt, Shift, Meta/Win
• Arrow keys, Home, End, Page Up/Down, Insert, Delete
• F1–F12
• Sticky modifiers: tap once to apply to the next key, tap twice to lock
• Real key events, so terminal and editor shortcuts work (Ctrl+C, Alt+Tab, arrow navigation, F-keys)

🌐 Languages & layouts
• 16 typing languages: English, Korean, Spanish, German, French, Portuguese, Italian, Indonesian, Malay, Filipino, Vietnamese, Russian, Ukrainian, Greek, Thai, and Lao
• Word suggestions and typo correction while typing Latin scripts
• Switch languages from a dedicated key or the system language picker
• Symbols and numbers, plus a dedicated row of terminal and coding glyphs (~ ` \ < > [ ] { } ^)
• A numpad tailored to the field: calculator, dialer or date entry

✏️ Editing, clipboard & voice
• Text-editing panel: cursor and line navigation, a selection toggle, select-all, cut, copy, paste and backspace — precise editing without reaching for the screen
• Clipboard history: reopen recent copies, pin the ones you reuse, and delete or clear the rest (captured only while the keyboard is open, never in password fields)
• On-device voice input: dictate offline on supported devices — nothing is sent to the network

😀 Emoji
• A full categorized picker with a Recents tab and consistent glyphs on every device
• Skin tones for people and hand emoji, remembered per emoji
• A ^_^ tab of kaomoji text emoticons
• Inline emoji search — type a name like "fire" and tap 🔥 from the suggestion bar

🎨 Make it yours
• Choose which function keys appear and reorder them by drag
• Create custom keys that insert any text, symbol, or emoji
• Build one-touch combos and multi-step macros (e.g. Ctrl+K, Ctrl+B)
• One-handed mode: dock the keyboard to the left or right edge
• System, Light, and Dark themes; small/medium/large keys plus a fine height slider

✨ Thoughtful typing
• Slide across the keys and release on the one you want
• Slide the space bar to move the cursor
• Long-press letters for accents, and the top row for numbers
• Key-press preview, haptics, and sound — all adjustable

🔒 Privacy
• The keyboard works fully offline. What you type is never collected.

Setup takes two steps: enable Function Keyboard, then switch to it from any text field. ## Rankings - #1,641,350 — Overall - #8 — cmd/ctrl+m - #12 — ctrl+m (windows) - #20 — function ## Permissions and access ### Permissions - `android.permission.ACCESS_ADSERVICES_AD_ID` - `android.permission.ACCESS_ADSERVICES_ATTRIBUTION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_ADSERVICES_TOPICS` - `android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE` - `android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE` - `android.permission.INTERNET` - `android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO` - `android.permission.VIBRATE` - `android.permission.WAKE_LOCK` - `com.android.vending.BILLING` - `com.android.vending.CHECK_LICENSE` - `com.google.android.gms.permission.AD_ID` - `com.siamakerlab.functionkeyboard.DYNAMIC_RECEIVER_NOT_EXPORTED_PERMISSION` ## Similar extensions and apps - [TermKey — Keyboard for Coders](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.circlepartnersgroup.termkey) — 316 users - [Function Keyboard](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.aarken.functionkeyboard) — 3,123 users - [Function Key Row](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.theprogrammersworld.berdik.functionkeyrow) — 21,339 users, 3.50 / 5 - [Hacker's Keyboard](https://chrome-stats.com/d/org.pocketworkstation.pckeyboard) — 12,763,244 users, 3.94 / 5 - [Hacking & Developing Keyboard](https://chrome-stats.com/d/de.bright_side.hacking_and_developing_keyboard) — 1,600 users, 4.10 / 5 - [CtrlKeyboard](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.mimshak.ctrlkeyboard) — 1,139 users - [Coding Keyboard forProgramming](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.ajay.prokeyboard) — 214,812 users, 3.85 / 5 - [DevKeys](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.lwmpo.devkeys) — 1 users - [Coding Keyboard forProgramming](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.ajay.paidCk) — 1,779 users, 4.78 / 5 - [Kiiboard : Keyboard for Coding](https://chrome-stats.com/d/khare.kiiboard) — 24 users - [Bright Keyboard](https://chrome-stats.com/d/de.bright_side.brightkeyboard) — 326 users - [PRO Keyboard](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.cybermindzpro.keyboard) — 200 users --- Source: [Chrome-Stats](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.siamakerlab.functionkeyboard)
