EmoteBoard — Support

Last updated: 20 September 2026

EmoteBoard is an iPhone keyboard for the emotes you know from live-stream chat. Search 7TV, BetterTTV, FrankerFaceZ and Twitch emotes from any app, tap one to copy it, and paste it into your message.

Setting up the keyboard

Open Settings → General → Keyboard → Keyboards → Add New Keyboard… and choose EmoteBoard.
Tap EmoteBoard in that list and turn on Allow Full Access. The keyboard needs it to download emotes and copy them to the clipboard. It never reads what you type; see the privacy policy.
In any app, hold the 🌐 key and choose EmoteBoard.

Sending an emote

Tap an emote to copy it, then tap the message field and choose Paste. iOS does not let keyboards insert images directly, so copy and paste is how every GIF and sticker keyboard works. Animated emotes are sent as animated GIFs.

Common questions

The keyboard says it needs Full Access

Turn on Allow Full Access in Settings → General → Keyboard → Keyboards → EmoteBoard. Without it iOS blocks the keyboard from the network and the clipboard, so it cannot load or copy emotes.

How do I save emotes I use a lot?

Hold any emote to add it to Favorites. Emotes you send appear under Recents; hold one there to remove it.

An emote does not animate after I paste it

Some apps only accept still images from the clipboard and keep the first frame. Messages and most chat apps keep the animation.

What do I get for free, and what does the purchase unlock?

Searching and browsing are always free, and your first 10 sends are free. EmoteBoard Lifetime is a single one-time purchase that removes the limit. There is no subscription.

I bought EmoteBoard Lifetime on another device

Open the EmoteBoard app, go to Setup, and tap Restore Purchases while signed in to the same Apple Account.

I found an emote that should not be there

Emotes are uploaded by the communities of the emote services. Email us the emote's name and we will block it.
