Get up and running in under a minute.
To type an uppercase letter, long-press the letter itself. No Shift key needed.
After installing SpeedKee, Android will guide you through enabling it and selecting it as your current keyboard. You will see simple on-screen toggles. Turn SpeedKee on, then select it as the active keyboard.
Open Messages, Notes, Gmail, or any app with a text field, then tap where you can type.
If SpeedKee is not showing, use your device’s keyboard switcher. This is often a small keyboard icon or globe icon near the bottom right of the keyboard.
1. Long-press the number key 1.
2. In the shortcut field, type hay
3. In the expansion field, type How are you?
4. Tap Save. You are immediately returned to your original app.
Now type hay followed by a space, and it expands to How are you?
1. Type or paste the text you want to reuse.
2. Long-press the left space bar.
3. Assign it a shortcut, then press Enter.
That text now has a shortcut, ready for future use.
Create a shortcut that triggers the voice macro. Example:
Shortcut: lp?
Expansion: %voice
After saving it, long-press ? and Google voice typing opens.
Your voice is processed by Google’s built-in voice engine, not by SpeedKee.
By default, shortcuts expand when you press the space key. SpeedKee also has optional triggers that can expand shortcuts immediately, such as repeating the last character of the shortcut or other trigger modes you can enable in Settings.
Shortcuts can expand to anything you can type, including symbols and favorite emoji combinations.
