Android Virtual Keyboard Extension

Question

I’m thinking of something like Appstore Textsastic, this is a complete line of the necessary keys (brackets, slash, etc.) right above the virtual keyboard, for example, this is an extension.

How can I do something like this in Android? Is there at least a way to listen when the virtual keyboard is showing?

Answer 1

See this article on how to create an input method . You cannot expand an existing keyboard without a code. Perhaps you could hack something together that will work in one application, but not in all applications.
