Most people know about the Emoji keyboard but some may not know about adding third-party keyboards to their iPhone or iPad, these allow many different fonts, so today I will be showing you how to do this.

It’s quick and easy to do, I will be using the App FancyKey Pro for this How To, but there are many different ones in the App Store so have a look to find one that suits your needs, simply search ‘Keyboard’ in the App Store.

How to: Install and Use Third-Party Keyboards on Your iPhone or iPad

Before I continue with this post I must disclose that Third-Party Keyboard Apps may access what you type when using their keyboard, which can cause privacy issues. Be sure to review the keyboard developer’s terms, privacy policy and practices to understand how they use your data before you download.

The reason I’m using FancyKey Pro is because after reviewing their privacy policy, I feel safe that they don’t collect my private information that is identifiable, you can read their full Privacy Policy HERE

Step One- Download

Visit the app store on your iPhone or iPad and search for Keyboards, find one that suits your needs and be sure to read the developers Privacy Policy. Download the app

Step Two- Setup

Once the Keyboard App is downloaded it’s time to add it to your keyboard, you do this by going into your setting>General>Keyboard>Keyboards>Add New Keyboard

Now your new Keyboard is added

Step Three- Read to Use

I will be using my new FancyKey Pro Keyboard on Facebook to write a status. First it will be your normal keyboard, hold the world icon which will show you which keyboards are available, press FancyKey Pro to activate.
