User Reviews

User reviews for Nkyea Keyboard reveal strong value for Ghanaian language users who want to type in local alphabets (Ga, Ewe, Akan) and communicate with their communities. However, recurring technical issues dominate: the keyboard frequently appears blank or unusable on many iPhones, especially after OS updates; compatibility with newer devices (iPhone 14/16 models and iOS versions) is inconsistent; installation and full-access prompts often fail to resolve problems. Additional concerns include incomplete language coverage and unreliable translation. Some reviewers still praise its concept and long-term usefulness when fixed.
Pros
  • Supports Ghanaian vernacular alphabets and orthography (Ga, Ewe, Akan) rather than only Roman scripts.
  • Facilitates communication and learning of local languages within Ghanaian communities.
  • Long-standing usefulness and positive sentiment among users (used for years).
  • Specific support for Ewe and other Ghanaian languages is appreciated.
Cons
  • Keyboard frequently appears blank or shows a blank orange/white screen, making typing impossible on many devices.
  • Significant compatibility issues with newer iPhone models and iOS versions (e.g., iPhone 14/16 Pro Max; iOS 16+).
  • Installation and setup problems persist (difficulty installing or reinstalling; full-access prompts do not fix the issue).
  • Insufficient language coverage (missing accents and some vernacular alphabets such as Fon).
  • Translation features are unreliable or do not work as advertised.
Recent reviews
It has been very helpful in granting the space for Ghanaians to write with clarity in our beloved alphabet without resulting soley on the roman alphabets. Lately the keyboard appears blank with no letters visible in latest iOS. It shows a white board.

I have been using Nkyea keyboard for several years now and have loved it….until now. After a phone upgrade, the screen went blank, am unable to type. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled, enabled full access, etc., with no luck. I noticed another user had the same issue. Please fix it, otherwise, great app.
