Review summary

Users praise the Clicks keyboard hardware (comfortable, well-spaced keys with a Blackberry-like design) and its shortcuts, but repeatedly report reliability and usability problems: firmware updates can brick devices with slow support, onboarding forces accounts/telemetry, backlight controls are flaky, some features are locked behind greyed-out options, and there are app-compatibility issues with other software.
Pros
  • Excellent hardware feel with well-spaced keys and a Blackberry-inspired design.
  • Helpful shortcuts and deeper controls that improve typing productivity.
  • Overall positive experiences and appreciation for the keyboard's concept and potential from a subset of users.
Cons
  • Firmware updates bricking the keyboard and slow or unresponsive customer support for replacements.
  • Mandatory account creation and telemetry, plus forced onboarding and tutorials.
  • Backlight issues: brightness may be dim and the backlight timing turns off too quickly.
  • Certain app features are greyed out (e.g., soft return), reducing usability.
  • Occasional compatibility issues with third-party apps causing crashes or instability when connected.

2026-08-20 5s***** Can you please update the onboarding. It doesnt allow you to select the device type and the buttons and layout are different which makes it confusing. It would also be great if there was a simpler way to control the mouse or the haptic feedback. Trying to use the keyboard on a tablet is…frustrating because you still need to tap the screen to navigate. That being said, once you’re in the field you want to type into, it is a pleasant experience.

2026-08-08 Cr***** My backlight only worked for one day. The settings don’t stay set. When trying to do the typing tutorial, the space bar goes back instead of inputting a space and so it doesn’t work. I think this was a bad purchase

2026-08-07 Ap***** I purchased the Power Keyboard and this app will not install and run on iOS 17 on my iPhone SE 2022. Very disappointed as the new version was to add support for the Power Keyboard.

2026-04-01 Bk***** My replacement from a replacement last three months now unresponsive completely! Support response warranty expired! The one this replaced was due to the letters peeling off the keyboard. If you’re thinking about getting one wait a year or so for this company remove all the bugs

2026-03-04 St***** I hate that every time I launch the app just because I want to turn on the backlight so I can see what I'm typing, I have to go through the welcome experience from scratch, including typing an emoji which I CANNOT DO because I don't have an emoji keyboard enabled. So I'm stuck unable to access the settings for my keyboard until I go copy/paste the emoji from somewhere. Doing this once was bad. Doing it repeatedly makes me angry.
