Pirate Keys

A keyboard for pirates

Get it on the App Store

hey, I’m running late, save me a seat

ahoy, I be runnin’ behind the tide, save me a berth

A sky that follows your clock

Keyboard at dawn — Dawn

Keyboard in daylight — Day

Keyboard at sunset — Sunset

Keyboard at night — Night

Cannons fire as you type

A cannon firing from the keyboard's rail toward three ships

A cannonball in flight and a ship taking a hit

Talk like a pirate

Write any message and press the skull key
Press it again for a different telling
Hold it to get your own words back
On an empty line it drops a pirate saying

Reads before it swaps

It reads the whole sentence before changing a word
A river bank stays a bank
Names stay just how you typed them
Links, numbers, @handles and quotes never change

A ship’s deck

The sky follows your clock from dawn to night
Ships sail past while the cannons fire as you type
Every key has its own sound, from cutlasses on the space bar to a ship’s wheel on return
Flip the silent switch to mute

Collects nothing

Never asks for Full Access
iOS blocks it from the internet
Every translation happens on your phone
What you type stays yours
