About this app

This is the new version of Symbol Shortcuts, now with added complete custom keyboard and all the Characters of the Unicode table... and yes, including Emoji 😀

Features:

* Build android custom keyboard with any symbol by adding it to your favorites.
* Quick access from keyboard to favorites to add more symbols.
* Search the symbols by Unicode, HTML code, UTF-8, UTF-16, Description or Character.
* Unsupported symbols will be filtered out from the menu, but can still be retrieved by search.
* Character information like Unicode, HTML code, UTF-8, UTF-16, Description will be displayed when selecting a symbol.
* Copy and Paste options are available for character or string of characters by enabling Text Editor mode.
* Keyboard has swipe left and right function to view other symbols that are listed in your favorites/keyboard.
* Basic symbols only show the Alt codes, for DOS or other computer operating systems.

To use Office code, type the code where the symbol is required. Hold down Alt, press x ones and then release Alt.

Find character by coping the symbol and paste it in search text field and search. Make sure there are no spaces or other characters next to that character, else it will search character descriptions.

Works good and allows a lot of functions to the keyboard on Samsung S20 phones. Customized keyboard size style and color .It could use additional symbol selections or add additional symbols from a download option as improvements. I'm not certain if it operates just on the current control set that the phone provides or if the customization of symbols is possible. Doesn't have those annoying advertisements, and best of all, it's free.

Hi, thank you for the review. At the moment, it uses the supported font of your phone. We are trying to find a solution without increasing the app size too much. 😊

This is by far the best keyboard app on the Google play store. It allows for every alphabet for every language. Couldn't be happier with a keyboard. Thanks for making it :D Edit (8/13/2019): I don't normally complain and I do know this is also Google and my phone's issue, however the keyboard isn't visible through GBoard. Since my new phone doesn't give me the "switch keyboards" option, I can't access it. If it were to be visible in Gboard this keyboard would surely be the best.

Seriously, I am a creative person who thought of a made-up language for fun. Didn't think I was able to type with it! It's funny and I love how the letters are pixelated in the game, looks very neat! When you bring a letter that has a capital and lowercase version in your keyboard it can be toggled to uppercase or lowercase! The selection is just so wide, I would recommend this. This was exactly what I wanted, but just wish I could toggle the keyboard to gboard so I can use my actual keyboard!
