We are working on updating our German keyboard layout because a few of you mentioned some of the keys were incorrectly mapped. In our research, we are finding that there are several variations of German keyboard layouts, so I just wanted to know what layout you guys actually use. If you could provide a link or a picture of the layout, that would be very helpful—particularly one that shows not only the surface-level keys but also the special characters they can create.

Hi everyone!

We have just released a new firmware version that aims to bring some stability and quality of life fixes to the BYOK. In particular, we have smoothed over issues that presented in some keyboards after the last update and have made the syncing process more robust - mainly targeting instances where syncing would fail without explanation.

Feel free to read the full patch notes below!

BYOK 1.1.1 Release Notes

Reliability Improvements

• Better protection against library data issues. If something goes wrong, the firmware will now automatically repair your library using a backup and restore everything right away, helping you keep working without interruption.

• More reliable syncing. Files that do not upload properly will now be retried automatically instead of being skipped, reducing the chance of missing or outdated content.

Keyboard Improvements

• Easier typing of accented capital letters. Characters such as ç, ñ, and é now correctly convert to uppercase across supported layouts.

• Improved special character input. German, French, and Italian keyboard layouts now include more intuitive shortcuts for punctuation and symbols, making typing smoother and more consistent.

• Better support for certain keyboards. Some keys that did not work correctly on specific keyboard types are now properly recognized.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed issues with special keys and shortcuts. Certain keys, including some Fn combinations, now work more as expected.

• Improved key detection accuracy. Reduced cases where the app could misread key presses, especially on non-Apple keyboards.

Installing updates
As always you can either download and install this update over wifi on your device or you can download it manually and install via the SD card.

Thank you for your ongoing support! We have lots of things in the works that we're excited to share :)

All the best,
Nick
