AI Keyboard Theme iOS App

Ship a personalized AI keyboard theme app for iPhone and monetize with App Store subscriptions.

In plain English

iPhone owners can subscribe, through the phone store, to a keyboard covered in personalized themes. A little AI flair sits in the designs, and extra themes can be bought inside the app. People want keys that feel personal and look different from the standard set. The AI does almost all of the theme-making, and the store handles the purchases. The person running the app still designs theme packs, works on being easy to find in the store, and answers support questions.
