iPhone
It senses which hand holds your phone and comes to that side. With both hands on the open Duo, it splits in two. 3-day free trial.
Foldboard is a keyboard made for iPhone Duo: type with one hand, left or right, or with both hands on the open screen.
IT FOLLOWS YOUR HAND
• It looks at how you hold the phone and comes to that side on its own.
• With both hands on the open Duo, it splits in two, one half under each thumb. On the outer screen, it goes full width.
• A thumb swipe or a tap on the other side moves it right away.
MADE FOR YOUR THUMB
• One hand left, one hand right, full width or two hands.
• Adjust the width, the distance from the edge and the key height.
• Your usual phrases above the keys and your emoji in the free space: one tap.
ALL THE BASICS
• QWERTY, AZERTY, QWERTZ and more, accents on long press.
• Auto-correction and word suggestions.
• Capital letter at the start of a sentence, double space for a period.
• Clipboard: everything you copy, one tap away.
• Slide to type, and hold the space bar to move the cursor like a trackpad.
MAKE IT YOURS
• 8 color themes and 4 fonts.
• 4 typing sounds and the vibration strength you like.
PRIVATE
Foldboard never sends what you type. No internet access, no account, no ads. Full Access is only used for vibrations, sounds and your settings.
TRIAL AND PURCHASE
Every feature is free for 3 days, with no subscription. After that, Foldboard Pro is a one-time purchase. One-hand typing, full width, QWERTY and AZERTY stay free.
Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
• New: emoji search. Tap the magnifying glass in the emoji bar and type a word (heart, laugh, party…).
• Hold 123, slide to a number or symbol and let go: it's typed and the letters come back, like on Apple's keyboard.
• You can hide the emoji key and show the globe as a smiley, to use Apple's emoji keyboard with stickers and Genmoji.
• The money key follows your region ($, €, £…).
• Corrections keep the capital letter at the start of a sentence.
• French: estce becomes est-ce, peutetre peut-être, and many more hyphenated words.
• Fixed: with the Automatic theme, several keyboards could appear on top of each other after folding or unfolding the Duo.
• Foldboard now speaks 11 languages: German, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Portuguese, Japanese, Korean, Chinese and Russian join English and French.
• New: clipboard. What you copy in any app is kept on your iPhone (never sent anywhere): open it with the clipboard button at the top of the keyboard, pin what you want to keep, and paste with one tap. Something you just copied also shows up in the suggestion bar.
• Space-bar trackpad: much more precise. Move slowly to go letter by letter, faster to jump further, and lines only change when you really move up or down.
• Double space only adds a period when you tap space twice quickly.
• Teach your thumbs in 30 seconds: type a sentence with each thumb and the keyboard follows your hand right away. Available anytime from the app.
• Better hand detection: the size of each touch is now one more clue.
• Your iPhone text replacements always work, even short ones, and your contacts' names are suggested and capitalized.
• Accents in the order of your language (ä ö ü ß, á é í ó ú ñ, å ä ö), plus ž ł ğ ř and ° on 0.
• French keyboard: type e then ’ for é, a then ’ for à (and ’ then e still works).
• The space before a period or comma is removed automatically.
• One-handed: the globe, emoji, settings and hide buttons next to the keyboard no longer move it to the other side. The period now sits on your thumb's side of the space bar.
• Smarter autocorrect for every word: swapped letters (mainteannt → maintenant), a key next to the right one (courznt → courant), an extra or a missing letter (pourqoi → pourquoi), and short words (fe → de). its becomes it’s when it should (its great → it’s great, on its own stays).
• More accurate slide to type: the keyboard now checks every turn of your path and its length, so long words like bonjour are no longer mistaken for shorter ones.
