It sounds like a very simple question but I couldn't find that much info.

If I create my own keyboard (number pad keyboard), how can I set that as my keyboard in Android?

This keyboard will only be used for one or two EditText fields.

Thank you.

  • That is if you want to change the default keyboard. That is system settings. I don't want to do that. In iOS for example, if I want to use my own keyboard, all I have to do is this: `myTextField.InputView = myCustomKeyboard;`. I am looking for something similar – ᴛʜᴇᴘᴀᴛᴇʟ Dec 28 '14 at 16:36

  • thanks for that link. that link also led to me the following post: http://goo.gl/F7r3fl but they both require user to change the input setting in system settings. I only want this keyboard for ONE textfield in my app. It doesn't seem convenient to ask user to change it for one textfield. – ᴛʜᴇᴘᴀᴛᴇʟ Dec 28 '14 at 17:04
  • Use a virtual keyboard. View with buttons to do your job. – Maihan Nijat Sep 27 '17 at 23:08
