Description
Avoid those tiny, frustrating buttons on your smartphone keyboard and enjoy the most advanced smartphone keyboard layout in the world.
(attn. devs - the patented Delta II keyboard matrix can be licensed - see below*)
Big Buttons Keyboard also has bigger number & punctuation buttons, making EVERYTHING you type on your smartphone EASIER and more ACCURATE! Bigger buttons are easier to read too.
But the MAGIC is in the patented Delta II modified-QWERTY keyboard layout that is surprisingly fast, accurate & EXTREMELY quick-to-learn!!
A more powerful version of Big Buttons Keyboard is available - Big Buttons Keyboard DELUXE ($2.99) includes themes, emoji, voice-to-text microphone, word prediction, large cursor keys & more.
Note 1 - Important - Big Buttons will NOT work until it is installed!! Press the blue & green BB icon, then press "Installation - Important" at the top of the menu and do both installation steps - it's easy.
Note 2 - All Android keyboard apps scare you with this warning: "Attention - This input method may be able to collect all the text you type..." Don't worry. Big Buttons Keyboard is a safe app that requires no risky permissions to run. Big Buttons Keyboard does not collect any of your data, nor can it access your emails, internet, text messages, etc. like most apps do, so type with confidence.
Note 3 - If any download from the Android Market hangs, go to your: Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > Market: Then Clear data and Clear cache. Then try to download again.

1 ★ worked great on my pixel 1 phone. switched to pixel 2 and cant get it to work , other keyboards will install. I paid for premium version and cant use
1 ★ Why can't l install the Standard version on my samsung anymore.l keep getting the Deluxe version showing on my mobile and no option to install the Standard version.
4 ★ The only issue I have is the hide keyboard button. It does what its supposed to do but also when you dont want it to. You should make it double tap instead of single tap. And spellcheck doesnt work well in the paid version.
4 ★ Downloaded "Big Fingers" years ago love it to this day. Just picked up new Samsung and continue getting message this app is intended for older version. Yes, even after fresh install, reboot, all that , stuff. Hope this is dealt with soon? Minor inconvience of late to yust delete message. But as usuall always comes at right moment to say, Aw S-it, not again? Otherwise fo my bpurpose its being used I would be 5!
4 ★ would be 5 stars but my note 9 freezes when using the keyboard on emails. sticks behind itself so your constantly waiting for it to catch up. I've used bb for years & I'm surprised at this -doesn't seem to cater for the newest phones. A shame ...
5 ★ Fantastic. Have struggled on tiny keypads for years. The big layout on portrait means I dont have to waste time going to landscape. Big and basic, yes please. No permissions required so a safe app. AAA+++ I like to carry the smaller 4" phones so this is great.
2 ★ Caused several lock ups on my S10 Plus. Annoying pop up adds. auto spell mistakes often. buttons are big, but i still get wrong letters. It looks great but needs work for me to put money into. I wont remove it yet, ill wait to see if they address these issuses.
2 ★ Has no voice to type. Not laid out like standard keyboard. No word suggeations. Fail.
3 ★ This is a great idea but wouldn't it have been easier if the keyboard had been alphabetic ie A - Z Save having to learn a system strange to everyone. Then it would have been worth 5 stars.
5 ★ After latest android update the additional characters can not be seen (overlapped by messenger, email...) at "e", "u" and "o". Please check and update. thx
5 ★ Excellent Keyboard. I have been using the Standard version for nearly 3 years and very happy with it. Many thanks to the developer for providing the Standard as a Free version.
5 ★ Kb gotta BB!! Superior instructions and tricks to maneuver impressive functionability!! Great app and I can't wait to use it!! Don't wait on downloading this one!!
3 ★ the keyboard is fine i got one problem with it iyou can not set it size wise below 90 % which is to big it covers to much of your screen i want it to about 60 but can not change it it want slide lower than 90
2 ★ Unfortunately, my BB keys stick when typing. I tried at least 4 other large button keyboards and this app was the only one where the keys stick while typing.
3 ★ This one is best available for my dexterity issues. Have been using this for more thsn a few years. Thanks!
