You can type with the physical keypad (T9) or an on-screen keyboard. Most people use Gboard as their on-screen keyboard.
The on-screen keyboard doesn’t appear
Open the Kosher Qin Phone app → ☰ (top left) → Tools → Input Switcher. This switches between the physical buttons and the on-screen keyboard.
Press Back so the keyboard closes, tap inside the text box, and try again.
Common keyboard questions
Question | Answer |
How do I type in Hebrew? | Open Gboard’s settings (the gear on the keyboard) → Languages → add Hebrew. Switch languages with the globe key. |
Can I type Hebrew on the keypad? | Yes, but the keys don’t have Hebrew letters printed on them. |
How do I swipe type? | Swipe typing needs Gboard. The basic keyboard doesn’t support it. |

Gboard is stuck or swipe typing stopped working | Settings → Apps & notifications → Gboard → Storage & cache → Clear storage. |
The keyboard is too small | Keyboard settings (gear on the keyboard) → adjust the height or size. |
Odd word suggestions | Gboard learns from words typed on any device signed in to the same Google account. |
The phone’s language changed by mistake | Settings → System → Languages & input → Languages → move English to the top. |
GIFs and stickers | Blocked by the filter. They can’t be unblocked. |
