NuKeyA tour of the app
Where everything lives: the home hub, the Keys menu, and what each section is for.
The home hub
The home screen is a hub of banner cards, one per area of the keyboard. Tap a card to open that section. Each one has a short explainer at the top and a live preview, so you see the change before you leave.

The Keys menu
Swipe in from the left edge of the screen to open the side menu, where the Keys settings live. If you would rather have it as a card on the home hub, turn on Show Keys on Home at the bottom of the Keys menu.
Previews that match the keyboard
Most sections show a typing preview of the active keyboard with your current lighting running. Press keys on it to hear and feel the current switch. The preview is a faithful copy of what the keyboard draws, which is why you can trust a colour you pick here.
