Features & Capabilities

More Physical Keyboard Layouts is a Chrome extension that expands the list of keyboard layouts available when a physical keyboard is connected to your Android device via Bluetooth or OTG. It adds a variety of layouts from worldwide languages and specialized formats which are often missing from stock Android distributions as of 2022.

The extension does not add an app icon but enhances system options found under System > Language and Input. It supports and tests numerous keyboard layouts including Albanian, Armenian, Bangla, Canadian French, Colemak, Polish Programmers, Romanian, Thai variants, Urdu, and many more. It promotes community involvement by encouraging users to share their tested keyboard layouts and contributes open-source code at GitHub, aimed at helping Android support diverse physical keyboard layouts natively.

User Reviews

Users broadly praise the app for expanding the physical keyboard with many layouts (Persian, Bulgarian, Czech, etc.) and fixing layout issues, with easy installation and privacy benefits. However, multiple reviews flag language-specific bugs (Devanagari, Myanmar, Arabic 102, Khmer), device-related launch/usage problems, and diacritic/mapping quirks. Overall, strong layout coverage and problem-solving capability, tempered by reliability issues on some languages and devices.

Pros

Offers a wide variety of new keyboard layouts across many languages (Persian, Bulgarian, Czech, Polish, Devanagari, Myanmar, Khmer, Nepali, etc.).
Fixes many physical keyboard issues on tablets/phones, improving typing experience and solving problems.
Easy to install and use; clean, out-of-the-box experience.
Privacy-friendly: no permission requests required.

Cons

Language-specific input bugs on several layouts (for example Devanagari Hindi number row, Myanmar composition, Arabic 102 input, Khmer keys) that affect correct character output.
Some devices or setups experience launch/usage problems (app not opening or not usable on certain tablets/devices).
Diacritics and special-character mappings can be inconsistent or require tweaks (requests to adjust mappings like +c, ç, etc.).
