Android keyboard with text input disable [Emoji's keyboard only]

Question

I want to use a keyboard with the text input option disable, is there another option than creating a new keyboard without text option? Maybe not using EditText or an Android Studio setting to disable text input and still using android:inputType emojis?

Thanks.

Can you try EditText attributes?

android:inputType="textShortMessage"

It isn't possible as far as I can see. You just can change some parts by inputType. If you want a specific keyboard, try to implement Emoji Keyboard using fragments.

There is an example : Emojicon
