UI Customization
The Keyless SDK can be customised in order to provide a more familiar UX when integrated in any custom app.
Theme
The SDK theme can be customized to be dark, light or system.
Keyless will use the system defined theme by default.
Keyless.UI.Color.sdkTheme = SdkTheme.SYSTEM
// default theme is SYSTEM
public enum class SdkTheme {
DARK,
LIGHT,
SYSTEM
}Keyless.UI.Color.sdkTheme = .system
// default theme is system
public enum SDKTheme {
case dark
case light
case system
}import Keyless, { SdkTheme } from '@react-native-keyless/sdk';
const ui = new Keyless.UI();
ui.color.sdkTheme = Keyless.SdkTheme.LIGHT;
await Keyless.updateUI(ui);
// default theme is SYSTEM
export enum SdkTheme {
SYSTEM = 'SYSTEM',
LIGHT = 'LIGHT',
DARK = 'DARK',
}Colors
It is possible to customize the following colors:
primary color This color is the one that appears most frequently across the screens and components.
onPrimary color The color used for elements that appear on top of the PrimaryColor, ensuring clear contrast and visibility.
accent color Color used in some small details of the UI (e.g. Camera Frame borders)
Example
Keyless.UI.Color.primary = 0xFF1833B8
Keyless.UI.Color.onPrimary = 0xFFFED900
Keyless.UI.Color.accent = 0xFFFED900Keyless.UI.Color.primary = .magenta
Keyless.UI.Color.onPrimary = .cyan
Keyless.UI.Color.accent = .yellowconst ui = new Keyless.UI();
ui.color.accent = '#1833B8';
ui.color.primary ='#FFFFFF';
ui.color.accent = '#FED900';
await Keyless.updateUI(ui);Text
It is possible to customize the following text across the Introduction, Error, Enrollment and Success screens. Live Filters cannot be customized individually but translation files are available and can be provided.\
Introduction
title Should be no longer than two lines
description Should be no longer than four lines
cta Should be no more than two words
Enrollment
We suggest to use no more than three lines of text.
Instruction
title
subtitle
tip1 This typically suggests to stay in a well lit area

centerFace Shown before the user positions the face.
scan Shown while scanning the user's face.
authenticate Shown while authenticating the user.
success Shown when the user has been authenticated successfully.





Live Filters
These appear dynamically on the camera preview screen during enrollment and guide the user to capture a high quality selfie are core to the product and subject to iterative change over time as we improve the product. Therefore these are not configurable individually however we do support localization – currently English and Italian are available but new ones can be created upon request.
The example below shows a live filter appearing to help the user. The corners/frame turns to the accent color (yellow in this example) once the biometric library is satisfied that a suitable image has been captured.

The following filters are returned though note the first two ("It's a bit dark, move closer to the light" and "The image is too bright, adjust lightning") are due to be added in Q4 2025.

Dynamic Linking
We suggest to not use more than two lines of text.

Fonts

The custom font must be set as soon as available, a good moment to do so is before calling Keyless.configure

It is possible to disable/enable haptic feedback.
By default, haptic feedback is enabled (true).
