Banana Keyboard

Banana Keyboard puts AI prompts inside your Android keyboard. It types prompts for you, but never hits Send, and your saved prompts stay on-device.

Banana Keyboard is a new Android keyboard that makes curated AI prompts available with a tap. Open it inside any chat app, pick a prompt, and the text gets inserted into the field for you. It stops there. The keyboard never sends the message, so the final tap still belongs to the user.
That small detail matters. A lot of AI tools want to move the whole conversation into their own interface. Banana Keyboard tries a different trick: stay inside the chat app you already use, then get out of the way. The prompt panel even folds down into a slim bar after insertion, so the message and send button remain visible.
The app also keeps favorites, recent prompts, and its bundled prompt library on the device. That will matter to people who care about where their prompts live, or who just don’t want another account in the mix. Banana Keyboard is free on Google Play and doesn’t require sign-up.
There’s also a web prompt library, which gives the project a bit more reach than a keyboard alone would. But the main pitch is still simple: fewer steps between thinking of a prompt and actually using it. On Android, that may be enough to get attention.
My take — AI-written commentary, not fact-checked reporting
This is the right kind of AI convenience: boring, local, and one step short of doing something stupid for the user. The industry keeps trying to turn every prompt into a grand platform moment; meanwhile, most people just want the words typed in without handing over their whole life story.
