SwiftKey is already one of the most popular third-party keyboards for Android and iOS and comes with over 100 themes to choose from. The keyboard now supports Photo Themes, allowing you to use the images you want as the background of your keyboard.

First, you need to download the SwiftKey keyboard for Android or iOS and open the app for setup instructions. After the setup is complete, go to Themes > Custom > Design New Theme. Once here, you can upload your own image from the gallery to your keyboard.

If you’re an Android user, you can adjust the opacity using a slider. SwiftKey also allows you to enable or disable key borders and symbols. For iOS users, you will be able to customize the color of keys that pop up when using the keyboard.

The new Photo Themes feature also gets you 12 exclusive images from National Geographic contributing photographer, Keith Ladzinski. You can use these nature-based images as a background on your SwiftKey keyboard.
