There are two types of plugins at Keyboard Extension: Built-in and Autohotkey.

Built-in plugins are features that are directly integrated into the keyboardextension.exe application. These plugins are usually included for free and come ready to use with the software.

Autohotkey plugins are open-source scripts written in the Autohotkeyscripting language. Any authorized user can create an Autohotkey plugin by uploading a script and configuring its input and output parameters.

No account needed for basic features.

You can use the basic features of Keyboard Extension without creating an account.

However, to create your own widgets and plugins, you'll need to register and sign in. Signed in users also get access to additional widgets and plugins.

Once you sign in, you’ll be able to use the Widget Editor, integrated into the mobile app, to design and customize your own layouts. You will also be able to upload Autohotkey scripts and convert them into Autohotkey plugins which can then be used for widgets.

Registration only requires an email address.

You can share your custom widgets with friends for free.

To use Keyboard Extension, you need to install both the Android app and the Windows app, then connect them after installation.

1. Make sure you have installed Keyboard Extension for both Windows and Android, and that both apps are currently running.

2. There are three connection methods available: WiFi, Web server, and Bluetooth. Choose the one that works best for you.

- For most users, we recommend WiFi. Your phone and computer must be connected to the same local network (e.g., the same WiFi router).

- Note: Sometimes, Windows Firewall or antivirus software may block the connection. If this happens, add keyboardextension.exe to your firewall/antivirus exclusions or open the necessary ports.

- If WiFi doesn’t work for you, try the Web server option. This usually doesn’t require firewall or antivirus adjustments but needs a reliable internet connection.

- If neither WiFi nor Web server works, try Bluetooth. It’s reliable but may have reduced performance compared to the other methods.

Absolutely! Please let us know what feature you'd like to see. We’ll review your request and get back to you with information on whether it’s possible and if there’s any cost involved—or if it will be available free of charge.
