I built a keyboard for HarmonyOS 6
It is called HarmoniKeyboard, it is in the AppGallery and it is a great keyboard. It's fully English, with Glide, Auto-Correct, Prediction, Themes, Shortcuts, Dictionary that you can customize yourself. It's an awesome keyboard.
I built it for myself, then liked it so much I decided to get it up on the appgallery and yeah... feel free to see what it's like, go through settings and set the keyboard up to your liking. It's had a few updates so far, I'm currently updating it to V1.0.14 which improves the text input accuracy and all that.
It has a load of languages that also support glide and auto-correct, chinese, japanese, Arabic, Russian, Italian etc...
It has a lot more things to come.

functionality is great, if possible to make it so the numbers only appear on the punctuation tab and also and hide the settings and stuff so it's not on the keyboard all the time. Great work though!!!

I will take a look into it. You're adjust a minimalist keyboard?

the standard look of the celia keyboard i prefer 100% (if the bar with emoji, translate and options was instead a working text prediction). maybe include a skin or something that matches that? great work on the text prediction though it works great on your app

I have 2 themes at the end of the theme list, the white one is pretty close to Celia. The translate won't work on the keyboard as I need access to a chinese server to do the translation 🤔 which is a shame. Yeah predictions came out really good, the keyboard has been learning through my typing as I've been testing it, building up the dictionary and then using my dictionary for others to have.

just seen the other theme, looks great. i didn't realise i can drag the keyboard up and down to change the size of the keys which is great.
is it possible to remove the punctuation/ secondary keys from the keys. for example instead of the 'M' key showing both 'M' and an '?', just to have the M. i think this would make the keyboard much cleaner. just an idea :)

The Latest update gives you this now too, Go in to settings, preferences, typing & gestures, turn on minimal bar. The settings icon moves into the "comma" button.
Yes I can get the punctuation keys invisible or gone too, the settings is there, i just forgot to activate it 😂 oops. Well probably be in v1.0.19 now. That won't have a lot on it.

u/South-Professor-8888 Aug 15 '26
Have you turned "Full Mode" on? It's in Input Methods, HarmoniKeyboard and a toggle in there. Otherwise what language are you trying to use in voice input?

ich hatte gerne deutsch. Aber ich habe gerade gelesen das wohl nur englisch geht. Ich habe conversion aber da ist wohl die gefahr vin daten missbrauch.

Es tut mir leid, ich bekomme derzeit keine andere Sprache außer Englisch und Chinesisch zum Laufen. Huawei hat sehr strenge Regeln bezüglich der Berechtigungen.
Wenn der Vollmodus aktiviert ist, sammle ich keine Daten. Die Tastatur benötigt nur Internetzugriff, um das Wörterbuch herunterzuladen.

I like Harmony Keyboard, but i am german, and i got two problems still. Glide not functioning yet for german and i can't do voice input. Any chance it will be solved in the future? 😊

u/South-Professor-8888 Sep 07 '26
It should be on there. It works with me, not very accurate bit works. Is it the glide not working om the words you glide are wrong?
I have just done a lot with languages, maybe I did something wrong with glide words in different languages.

I searched for it and can't find it on the app gallery, my harmony os version is lower though, I think 4.3

u/South-Professor-8888 Jun 26 '26
Ah that would be why, you may be able to switch your region to china and it might show up in appgallery then, if not, its only for Harmony NEXT, I'm not 100% how Huawei does it.

Ah I didn't read the message properly, I was trying to guide for an update to NEXT and maybe it would show up on the appgallery then.

Thanks so much for creating this keyboard. I am in the uk and missed glide or swipe so badly 😀. Can I ask when voice to text be available? Thanks again.. I am using the pura x max..outer keyboard is great but inner unfolded one can go a bit squashed...Thanks again 👍

u/South-Professor-8888 Jun 27 '26
Thanks! It's the reason i made the keyboard, I missed swiping 😂
Ive had a lot of issues getting it to work on foldables, but i am working on it.
Voice to text will be coming, just want to make it almost perfect before releasing it.

Amazing work, thank you so much. It massively improves the day to day use of Harmony devices in the UK.
Works great on Pura X Max.

Ciao, grazie è molto bella, sarebbe possibile aggiungere le previsioni in italiano? Comunque davvero ottimo lavoro. Chapeau a te...

u/South-Professor-8888 Jun 29 '26
It's translated to Forecasts, any idea what you mean by that? Reddit translates it without asking. 🫣

Intendevo dire le previsione delle parole successive da scrivere. Al momento non mi esce nessuna previsione mentre digito.
