Want ChatGPT or Gemini on Android Keyboard? Learn the Simple Steps for Real-Time AI Typing Power!

Adding ChatGPT or Gemini to your Android keyboard gives you smart help right where you type. This guide breaks down each step simply, so anyone can do it, but does mention that rooting the device is often needed. Follow these directions to make your keyboard smarter and see information appear in real time.

What You’ll Need

  • A rooted Android device (using tools like Magisk or KernelSU).
  • The LSPosed Framework installed for deep customization.
  • The KeyboardGPT app from GitHub.
  • API keys from OpenAI (ChatGPT) or Google AI Studio (Gemini).

Step 1: Prepare Your Device

  1. Root your device with Magisk, KernelSU, or a similar tool. Only do this if you understand the risks. Rooting voids warranty on most phones and could harm the device.
  2. Download and install the LSPosed Framework.
  3. Install the KeyboardGPT module from its official GitHub page.
  4. Open LSPosed, go to Modules, turn on KeyboardGPT.
  5. If you use Gboard (Google Keyboard) and can’t find it, tap the overflow menu, uncheck the “Hide system apps” option, then select Gboard.

Step 2: Get and Add Your API Key

  1. Open any app where you can type (for example, a search box or message field).
  2. Type something and press Enter. A KeyboardGPT popup appears for you to choose your AI provider.

For Gemini (Google)

  1. Visit Google AI Studio and create a new API key.
  2. Copy your API key and paste it into the KeyboardGPT settings.
  3. Use one of the following as the Base URL:
    • https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com
    • https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/
    • https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/openai/
  4. Tap OK to save and test.

For ChatGPT (OpenAI)

  1. Go to the OpenAI API dashboard and create a new secret key.
  2. Copy the key to KeyboardGPT’s API field.
  3. Tap OK and test the connection.

Step 3: Learn the Basic Commands

  • ?? – Opens the menu: Pick your AI provider and set keys.
  • ? prompt – Asks a normal question. Example: ? What’s the weather today?
  • !! – Lets you program and save custom AI commands for special roles (like chef, teacher, etc).
  • !{prefix} prompt – Uses a custom command or role (e.g., !chef Give me a pasta recipe).
  • !s prompt – Sends your text for web search, not just a regular AI response.

Step 4: Start Using Your Smart Keyboard

  1. Open any place where you can type – messages, search boxes, translation fields.
  2. Type a command and press Enter. The AI gives you real-time answers right in the keyboard.
  3. These features work in all apps, meaning you won’t have to copy and paste between apps.

Supported Keyboards

  • Gboard (Google Keyboard)
  • SwiftKey
  • Flesky
  • Samsung Keyboard

Why This Helps

  • You can get instant answers without switching apps.
  • You choose your AI (ChatGPT, Gemini, or other supported models).
  • Make the AI act like a chef, teacher, or any other expert for more personal responses.
  • It’s easy to switch which AI you use, or the API key, by just opening the settings in the keyboard.

Precautions

Rooting voids most phone warranties and may cause system risks. Only use these instructions if you’re comfortable with advanced setup and understand the downsides.

If you get stuck, check KeyboardGPT’s page on GitHub for more details or ask in community forums like XDA Developers for help. Getting AI responses on your Android keyboard saves time and makes typing more enjoyable, especially after setup is complete.
