Review summary

Users praise Simple Keyboard for its minimalist, privacy-first approach and lightweight, fast typing. However, recurring issues center on feature gaps: no emoji support; no Chinese language option; no predictive text or word suggestions and no clipboard access; plus some auto-capitalization quirks. The app is valued for security and simplicity, but many want broader language support, basic conveniences, and minor UI refinements without sacrificing privacy.

Pros

Simple, clean minimalist design/layout
Privacy-focused and secure (no data collection or keyloggers)
Lightweight and fast/smooth typing experience
No bloat or AI features; distraction-free use
Clear, straightforward usability

Cons

Lack of emoji support or a visible emoji option
No Chinese language support; requests for Simplified Chinese
No predictive text / auto-correct / word suggestions
Clipboard access is missing
Auto-capitalization inconsistencies and minor typing annoyances

2026-08-17	A *****	Simple and brilliant without typical practices of free apps e.g. ads and spying. Dev, is there a way to make this spoof the default GBoard as many banking apps will not allow the use of Simple Keyboard.
