Clink Launches Custom, Private iOS Keyboard

Clink’s strongest pitch is treating the keyboard as a programmable personal workspace rather than a static input layer.

• –Deep customization includes key layouts, 3D styles, sounds, haptics, profiles, and community packs
• –On-device typing and optional Full Access make its privacy model clearer than many third-party keyboards
• –Python-based plugins and automations give power users a lightweight extension system
• –Built-in AI tools are useful, but the product’s core differentiation is ownership and control—not AI
• –The free keyboard plus paid tools and extensions creates a familiar subscription tradeoff for privacy-conscious users
