About this app

Your keyboard is on screen more than almost anything else on your phone — so why is it still a boring gray slab?

Hacker Keyboard turns it into a statement. It's a normal, daily-usable QWERTY keyboard for texting, chatting and posting — but behind the keys is a hacking-themed background you choose. Matrix code-rain. Circuit boards. Cyberpunk cities. Glitch. Terminal. Hex dumps. Neon skulls. Or your own photo.

Add a neon glow, dim the image just enough to keep your keys readable, pick your key color and font — and every message you type looks like it came from a terminal in a cyberpunk movie.

WHAT YOU GET

• Curated theme gallery — hand-picked hacking themes: Matrix, Binary, Circuit, Hex, Terminal, Glitch, 127.0.0.1, Root Shell, Hex Dump, Static, Night Desk, Code Wall. Free themes plus PRO packs.

• Use your own photo — pick any image, position it, dim it, and it becomes your keyboard skin. Completely free.

• Real customization — background dim, key opacity, key text color, font, and optional neon effects. Applied live and saved per theme.

• Live preview — see the keyboard with your theme before you commit, without hunting for a text field.

• Guided setup — a simple enable-and-select wizard gets you typing in seconds.

• Instant switching — change theme or tweak the look and the keyboard updates immediately. No restart.

PRIVACY IS THE POINT

A keyboard can see everything you type. Most themed keyboards treat that as an opportunity. This one doesn't.

• What you type never leaves your device. Keystrokes are never uploaded, logged or synced.
• Your photos never leave your device — the image you pick stays local, always.
• Themes render entirely on-device. Typing works fully offline.
• The only network use is the purchase and restore check for the PRO unlock.
• No ads. No trackers. No nagging upsell popups.

TASTEFUL, NOT TRASHY

Most keyboard theme apps are ad-bloated and full of generic "pretty" skins. Hacker Keyboard is hand-picked for one aesthetic and does it properly: bold, glowing, image-forward — with key legibility over any background treated as a hard constraint, not an afterthought.

PRO UNLOCK — ONE TIME, NO SUBSCRIPTION

PRO themes and effects are planned to unlock with a single one-time purchase — no subscription, no ads, no recurring charge. Purchasing is not enabled in this beta build; the free themes and the use-your-own-photo feature are fully available.

BUILT FOR

• Anyone into the hacker, cyberpunk, Matrix or Anonymous aesthetic
• Gamers and streamers who theme their whole setup and want their phone to match
• People who personalize their wallpaper and icons and are tired of the keyboard staying gray
• Anyone who wants a keyboard that looks incredible AND respects what it can see

Type like you mean it.
