You can actually create an InputConnection for your CustomKeyBoard and then set this connection to your EditText
Using InputConnection, your CustomKeyBoard will replace the android keyboard and work as default.
You can get code from Here: https://www.ssaurel.com/blog/creating-an-in-app-keyboard-for-your-android-apps/
