About this app

Add some zest to your messaging experience with a smart and slick auto-correct feature, smooth swiping, a dedicated translator, and voice commands that support emoticons, GIFs, and stickers. Chat away like never before.


Your security and anonymity is our top priority

All input data is completely anonymized and won't be collected without your permission. The keyboard collects your input so it can learn and adapt to your personal style (don't worry, you can toggle this feature on or off in settings). None of your passwords, contacts, credit card information or other sensitive data is being collected.

Reads, writes, and speaks like a native

The keyboard uses proprietary machine learning algorithms developed by Yandex in order to make appropriate suggestions as you type. Advanced predictive capabilities even let you receive suggestions for words you haven't typed yet. You can also suggest your own words and let the keyboard adapt to the way you talk, or just forgo the feature altogether.

An interpreter in your pocket

The keyboard knows 70 languages and can easily translate phrases between multiple language pairs, including English, Afrikaans, Albanian, Arabic, Armenian, Azerbaijani, Bashkir, Basque, Belarusian, Bengali, Bosnian, Bulgarian, Catalan, Chuvash, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Estonian, Finnish, French, Gaelic, Galician, Georgian, German, Greek, Haitian, Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian, Icelandic, Indonesian, Italian, Kazakh, Kyrgyz, Latin, Latvian, Lithuanian, Macedonian, Malagasy, Malay, Maltese, Mari, Mongolian, Nepali, Norwegian, Persian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Serbian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish, Swahili, Swedish, Tagalog, Tajik, Tamil, Tatar, Telugu, Turkish, Udmurt, Ukrainian, Uzbek, Vietnamese, Welsh, Yakut, and Zulu. You can use the keyboard to effortlessly talk to people who don't speak your native tongue, without worrying about grammar rules.

Make talking more fun

Spice up your conversations with animated GIFs (built-in search included), emojis, and stickers, and you can even get emoji suggestions as you type along. The keyboard also supports kaomojis, which are fun emoticons constructed with Japanese characters, such as this angry guy flipping a table ( ╯°□°)╯┻━━┻ or a cute little bear ヽ( ̄(エ) ̄)ノ.

Enjoy tools for every occasion and a host of useful options

You can change up the keyboard's design: make it vibrant and colorful or go for something darker and sleeker looking. Don't waste your time on toggling and swiping: add numbers and other extra characters to your main keyboard layout for instant access. If you need to turn to the Internet for help, a built-in Yandex search is always right at your fingertips.

This keyboard is trying so hard, but failing at the simplest things. It's good, but missing things like an option to not reverse the autocorrect when I backspace. Some times I just want to change one letter in a word it autocorrected, but it just reverses the whole thing. It also seems to have an issue with "it's", and never suggests it. Always an "its". Autocorrect is a mixbag. Sometimes, it does good and others is just plain bad. I can't make it my default keyboard still.

Thanks for the feedback! We will take into account your wish not to cancel autocorrect when you click backspace. Please make sure that the app is allowed to remember the words you typed. Go to settings of the Yandex Keyboard → Personalization → Use personal dictionary.

Mostly superior to GBoard but some English features aren't working on Android 14 that work fine on Android 9. Examples: autocorrect, suggestions, spell checker, emoji search. I don't know if compatibility is the issue because the Google Play description says it is compatible with Android 14. I've tried the settings and everything available is turned on. I'm really going to miss my favorite Yandex features. I don't have high speed internet so I don't know if customer service can help. 🥺

For now.... until someone screw up something, this, with swipe precision and customization is surely Android no. 1 program! This was written with swipe and without 1 mistake!!!! But some languages are not true QUERTZ. Special signs are added, so glide is very difficult there. And it changing languages by itself. This is problem because multilanguage swipe input is not supported.
