Click into the keyboard
I knew Blackberry had left the building, well mine was still working but already on its second battery and I felt a bit like betraying it, searching on it for alternatives. One day I found about Clicks and I asked if there's a german language layout available - when it was I was already on my third battery and while it was on its way to me, when my poor Blackberry lost its "P" Button. What can I say? The Clicks keyboard has a high quality, it works well and people look at my mobile with amazement. It's still quite a secret in Germany, but I like to spread the word because still I want a german layout keyboard when I need my next mobile - though hopefully not too soon. I use my mobile to type longer texts, some of them get published. Clicks is the future of writing, it still feels like in that Kraftwerk song "I'm the operator with my pocket calculator".
My Clicks is on a Pixel 9. It makes the quote quite long, but the keyboard is worth it. Yes, I was once a Blackberry user, and yes, I'm over 50. For me, the keyboard eliminates most typos, and allows me to work faster. Also, the extra screen real estate, due to no one screen keyboard showing, is quite useful for longer messags, and in chat. The quality of the build and fit of the keyboard case seem very qood after a few weeks of daily use.
There are two sides to my experience with the Clicks keyboard: my own user experience and how others perceive it. Let me start with my own. As a former BlackBerry user and lifelong fan, I’ve always missed the tactile feel of a real physical keyboard on my phone. Clicks delivers beautifully on that nostalgia - the keys are high quality, backlit, and perfectly spaced, with a typing sensation that comes impressively close to a classic BlackBerry. The shortcuts are another fantastic feature. As someone who constantly switches between work apps (like Teams and Outlook) and personal apps, the ability to jump between them instantly is a huge productivity boost. And for those moments when you’d rather type silently, the on-screen keyboard pops up seamlessly. I absolutely love my Clicks keyboard, and after waiting over a year to snag one at a great price, it was worth every penny. Now, onto the public reaction - this thing is a total head-turner! Everywhere I’ve used it, across the UK, Qatar, Turkey, and Pakistan, people either stop me to ask what it is or glance curiously trying to figure it out. It’s always a fun conversation starter, especially with fellow tech enthusiasts; the vibe feels a lot like chatting with a car enthusiast about your custom mods. If you miss the days of physical keyboards, or just want a unique and productive upgrade to your iPhone experience, I couldn’t recommend this enough.
I just purchased the Clicks for my 16 Pro Max, delivery was fast and im really happy with the design and quality.
I was hesitant about a clip-on keyboard for phones, but this Clicks Keyboard has completely changed my mind. The buttons have a great feel to them, just like a real keyboard, and they make typing so much faster and more accurate. The design is also very sleek and professional-looking. I don't regret this purchase at all!
The cover is great and the sound of the buttons is so satisfying. I really recommend this cover. Great accessory.
I love my clicks keyboard. However, coming from Android (gboard), and BlackBerry previous to that, I really miss long press for alternate input. It would be amazing if you could add long press to input the symbols that are noted on the keys. I'm aware that this is difficult with iOS, but there are keyboard apps which do it so it should be doable with clicks.
I purchased Clicks keyboard for Iphone 15 and been using it on my Iphone 16e. It is working on all aspect and very smooth to use. It is easy to use at about 1 week of daily use. The only downside is when using it with Tiktok.
This is the ultimate case for an iPhone power-user or techno-addict. The ability to customize the keyboard integrated with Shortcuts is superb. Increased usable screen space is quite useful.
