The Null Keyboard is a new and revamped app of the original one released years ago by wParam.
There are different situations when the user is not supposed to see the Keyboard for an input field, this is happening mainly for enterprise use cases and this is where the idea of Null Keyboard comes in.
It provides a quick way to switch the default Keyboard being used with the Null one so that the user can go ahead with their workflow without being interfered by the keyboard showing every time. No keyboard will not be shown during this time and the user will be able to switch Null Keyboard back to the traditional one whenever they need it.
There are also some some settings specially designed for Zebra Devices, allowing you to use Null Keyboard in a more flexible way and these are:
- Enabling and setting Null Keyboard as default input method automatically without going through the System Settings
- Disabling Gboard
- Switching Null Keyboard with your preferred input method by assigning one of the HW buttons of the device for this operation
