Even if it wasn’t free, this is the correct way to market something on reddit before us, and now Lemmy. Upvote for acceptable post.

I’ve been posting this on a few places over the last 1.5 years. Basically where ever I currently am when the thought crosses my mind ;)

I posted it on Beehaw a few weeks ago.

The Onscreen keyboard still being visible would bother me so bad

It doesn’t have to be. I actually use a custom onscreen keyboard that just shows special characters that aren’t on the keyboard.

But you can just as easily tell the phone to hide the onscreen keyboard if the physical one is attached. Just a checkbox that needs to be toggled.

What software is driving that custom on screen keyboard? I think it’s brilliant!

It’s called Gr8ly. It’s not perfect, but it does the job.

I really wish it was possible to hide the bottom row of the custom keyboard, since it serves no purpouse in my use case.

That is amazing. I miss the tactility of real life keys and less mistakes made with them compared to onscreen keys.

Did you wake up from a coma from the 2000s and are trying to bring back Blackberry phones and PDAs? If so, I am all for it.

Almostˆˆ My Droid 4 died in 2016 and that sent me on a ~6 year quest to design a decent keyboard attachment for my phone.
